Conceived and created as an aid for teaching her math students the properties of hyperbolic planes, Daina Taimina presents a colorful display of crocheted shapes, on display in the gallery of the Nevin Welcome Center. These artistically designed representations of hyperbolic planes provide a tactile connection between geometry, art, and nature. Taimina retired from teaching math at Cornell in 2015 but continues to teach mathematical concepts we all experience in our daily lives to a broader audience through her crochet artwork. Hyperbolic geometry is present in many shapes in nature such as the fluted surfaces of lettuces, fungi, and...

Join the EcoAthletes Collegiate Cup! Compete for Cornell against 26 schools to log the most workout hours and remove the most carbon from our atmosphere! Track workouts (exercising (running, walking, cycling, swimming, gym workouts, rowing) on the Climate Games app from March 10 to April 22, Earth Day. Those workouts are then converted into an environmental currency which will be used to fund a coral restoration project, thus reducing the release of carbon into the atmosphere. The school that exercises the most in total over the six weeks of the competition wins the Cup!...

This workshop will cover general houseplant care and how to transplant them. There will be a variety of houseplants you can choose from to pot up and take home. Weather permitting, a brief tour of the gardens may also be possible. All materials will be provided. Participants must be 18 years of age or older....
