"Pi Day"
(2006)
This video is a “documentary” of sorts. Each year the UW Baraboo
Math department has sponsored “Pi-Day.” (March 14). In 2006,
the department asked the faculty and staff to recite Pi in their “native”
tongue, or a second language. The department also wanted to present themselves
outside the classroom. A party was staged where each person came with
dressed with their “out of classroom” personas. The director
was happy to sponge of the party treats.
