Polymathic Pizza: A META Good Time

This event is open to current students only.

Play or playfulness does not naturally come to mind when deep in your studies in the stacks of Doheny Library or scrambling at 4:00 a.m. to finish that term paper due at 9:00 a.m. It might seem counterintuitive to incorporate play into the “serious academic pursuit.” Albert Einstein, however, disagrees: “Play,” he said, “is the highest form of research.” Play cultivates in us greater creativity, unleashes our ability to think, and provides the ideal field for developing our problem-solving skills. Play can also open us up to new worlds of imagination and possibility. 

So, as we finish the semester and begin preparation for finals . . . LET THE GAMES BEGIN!! For our final Fall meeting, we will forego pizza for a catered dinner; play games to open and release our creativities, imaginings, and problem-solving mindsets to prepare for the weeks ahead; and just have fun! Join us for a polymathically great way to end the semester together.
