The math we learn in school can seem like a dull set of rules, laid down by the ancients and not to be questioned. In How Not to Be Wrong, Jordan Ellenberg shows us how wrong this view is: Math touches everything we do, allowing us to see the hidden structures beneath the messy and chaotic surface of our daily lives. It’s a science of not being wrong, worked out through centuries of hard work and argument.

This talk is part of Georgia Tech’s Science Matters lecture series. There will be a reception after the talk and time for visitors to chat with Ellenberg and each other.

You may park in the Burge Parking Deck ($1.00 per hour) - this offers a very short walk to the Theater. It's a short and direct walk from the Parking Deck to the Clary Theater.

* Note: Walking from the Parking Deck to the Theater does require crossing North Avenue and then climbing about 20 stairs.*
