Welcome to the CSU Math Club!

The Math Club is a place for people who enjoy the power and beauty of mathematics.  Mathematics is that light at the end of the tunnel that opens you up to a whole new world and a new way of seeings things.  It is the offspring of the marriage between aesthetics and logic.  Not seeing the beauty of mathematics is like complaining about how ugly a painting is covered with tarp.  Open your eyes, join us, and set your mind on fire.


Our meetings are (usually) every Tuesday from 3:00 to 3:50 in RT 1516

Everyone is welcome from the mathematically timid to the mathematically bold!

 
Welcome, CSU Students!
Our next meeting will be:

 

Special Presentation:  Special Relativity

   Tuesday, Nov. 24, 2009 12:00 - 1:00 PM, in SI 117  

Please note the different time and place for this week's meeting! 

This week, the Math Club presents a special joint presentation with the Society of Physics Students (SPS)!  Prasenjit Bose, a member of both clubs, will give a presentation on special relativity:

    "For more than nineteen centuries, time was known to flow at a constant rate. It was believed that time has a constant “rate of flowing” irrespective of the environment.  In 1905, an unknown clerk working in the Swiss Patent Office gave the world a mind-blowing explanation of the behavior of time and how its “rate” behaves in our universe. He gave us a new perspective of our Universe and changed the laws of relative motion.  This unknown clerk turned out to be the greatest physicist of the 20th century and we all know him as Albert Einstein."

Everyone is welcome to attend!

 
(Or you could just come for the snacks and the chance to win dining dollars by solving our Problems of the Week.)

     As always, it's FREE!
