Volunteer Opportunity -- Youth Court

http://www.projectyouthcourt.org/get-involved/

There are many ways to get involved, which range from acting as a juror, bailiff, or clerk to arguing the side of the defendant or prosecutor as a youth attorney. Each role plays a different but key role in the courthouse. All high school volunteers will be trained by a professional attorney and will have access to older mentors who have gone through our program. The Project Youth Court team will email you with more information about volunteer training after you have submitted the form.

This Morning is a Math Morning!

Sun, November 1, Davies Auditorium, 10 Hillhouse Avenue: 
Kelly Delp (Cornell): What can you make using cellular automata?
Suppose we have a line of boxes, each with two possible states, black or white. A 1-dimensional cellular automaton is a simple set of rules for determining how the states of these boxes change over time.  Slight changes in the rules can lead to vastly different patterns. In this talk we will look at examples of these 1-dimensional (and possibly 2-dimensional) automata and see how mathematical artists use them in beadwork, knitting, and image processing.

(Sorry for the late notice; this looks like a good one!)
