An Upset on Pi Day
Thursday, March 14 ("3.14"), marked the annual celebration of a transcendental mathematical constant.
Given its relevance across math and physics, Pi (π) receives its own assembly at Burke, hosted by the Math Club and including a digits of pi recitation contest across grades. And the 6th grade pulled off an upset, thanks to Kendall T. '30, who recited a stellar 143 digits from memory. Randomly distributed cheers!
