USC Mathematics Festivals
USC Mathematics Festivals
Have you ever been to a music festival? Just replace music with math, and this is what you get: a mathematics festival. People enthusiastic about sharing math come together, bring their toys and go crazy.
These events aim to spread what today's mathematics is about, what mathematicians do and what is there beyond calculus. As a byproduct, they create a community, make important knowledge public and strenghten the public presence of math departments on campuses.
If you ever want to organize such an event, it is cheap, easy to organize and definitely worth it.
