The event of the century is here, and no, it’s not the release of the seventh Star Wars movie.
The most correct of all Pi-Days is coming up in March on 3/14/15 at 9:26:53 p.m. At that time, the date will be as close to the digits of Pi as possible for another century.
A Pi-Day Celebration will be held by the BYU Department of Mathematics on Friday, March 13, 2015 from 12 to 2 p.m. in Brigham Square. This year’s event features the ever-popular activities: Pi Recitation, Pi the Professor, and a Pi Eating Contest, but this year students will also have the chance to pie the BYU Rugby team. In addition, the first 200 attendees at the home rugby game on Saturday, March 14th, will receive a piece of pie.
Pi Day and other BYU Math t-shirts will be for sale at the event as well as in the TMCB lobby the week of Pi Day (March 6-14). For the first time in BYU Math history, toddler t-shirts and infant onesies will also be available in various pi-related styles.
If you would like to volunteer to work at a Pi Day booth, please email marketing@math.byu.edu, visit 275 TMCB, or call 801-422-7894. Volunteers will receive a free Pi Day t-shirt.
Don’t miss the chance to celebrate the most famous infinite number with all of the exciting events below, and, don’t forget, Pi is for everyone—not just mathematicians.
We can’t wait to see you at Pi Day!
