2024-2025 Math/Stat Colloquium Series
Professor William Dunham - Kaori Kitao Lecture
"Mathematics is perhaps the most useful of subjects, but my interests are not utilitarian. Rather, I look to the great landmarks from the history of mathematics and present them as creative achievements that are a joy to behold."
