POTSDAM -- The SUNY Potsdam Math Alliance will celebrate Pi Day at the college on Saturday, March 14, from 1 to 4 p.m. in the Knowles Conference Center Multi-Purpose Room.
Pi, a very important number in mathematics, can be rounded to 3.14. This corresponds to March 14 on the calendar, and math enthusiasts around the world often celebrate this as Pi Day.
This year, Pi Day is extra special, because 3.1415 -- the first five digits of pi -- correspond directly to this year's date, March 14, 2015.
Guests can participate in "Math Jeopardy" and "Math Jeopardy Jr.," try their hand at origami and take part in a pie-eating contest. There will also be a fundraiser for the opportunity to pie a SUNY Potsdam math professor or a friend! Prizes will be awarded.
Admission is free and anyone is welcome.
