Sonia Math Day: Proof and Consequence
November 9, 2019, 10am-3pm
This was our 13th Sonia Math Day, and it was around the theme of Proof and Consequence: What does it mean to discover new mathematics? How do you know when you are correct, and how can you convince others? We will explore these topics through engaging mathematical questions and interactive activities.
Registration is now closed. If you have registered and are unable to attend, please email us at dn2@illinois.edu to let us know of your cancellation. Please contact us if you have any questions.

It is impossible to be a mathematician without being a poet in soul.
