N.Y. Newspaper Notes Math Professor Farley’s School Visit
The Daily Greenburgh newspaper carried a feature story recently about UMaine math professor Jonathan Farley, who visited a Greenburgh, N.Y. high school to talk with students about mathematics and “Pi Day,” celebrated on March 14 at the school because of the similarity between Pi, the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter, which is approximately 3.14, and the numeric equivalent of March 14 (3.14).
