The beloved almighty PMC executive proxioctumvirate have decreed an official "Bonfire" event for Tuesday, August 9th at Laurek Creek fire pit. With food.

Here's the instant replay on that announcement:

PMC End of Term Bonfire
Time: Monday, August 8th at 7:00pm
Location: Laurel Creek Fire Pit
Food: Snacks and fire foods :)

The event is open only to paid club members. If you haven't paid your membership fee, do it now! If you need directions, there'll be an executive heading there from the club office just before.

Big thanks to everyone who showed up and made PMC such an active and lovely club to be in this term. Speaking of, you can check out the most recent issue of mathNEWS for an article, written by yours truly, on some recently-unearthed PMC history…

Hope to see you at EOT!

AMath Prof Talk with Robert Mann

June 14, 2022

3:00 PM–4:00 PM
MC 4041

Back

Hey folks! Since we're half-way into the term, we figured we ought to have a prof talk at some point, so here it is, organised by Defne, our almighty VP AMath: I am happy to announce our first PMC prof talk of the term will be presented by UWaterloo's own physics/astro professor, Robert Mann!

The talk will be on quantum gravity and some cool stuff about black holes. Specifically, "black hole chemistry". I was told that there would, in fact, not be any live demonstrations of this so-called "black hole chemistry", so you can rest easy if you had any concerns about that. So clear your schedules on June 14th at 3:00pm and come to MC 4041 for some "Adventures in Quantum Gravity".

Hope to see you there!
