After a brief hiatus for the holidays, Family Math Club will resume this Sunday 12/6 with a presentation by Ithaca College math professor David Brown. David will tell us about magic squares: numbers arranged in rows and columns and chosen so that all rows, columns, and diagonals add up to the same number. At first glance magic squares may seem frivolous; upon closer inspection one finds great depth.

The Family Math Club meets Sundays from 2pm to 3:30pm on the third floor of Williams Hall on the Ithaca College Campus. Meetings are free and open to everyone. Kids aged 8 to 13 have reported enjoying the club. To get to the club travel to South Hill on 96B. Turn into the Ithaca College main entrance. Go three fourths around the circle and then along a straight stretch. Take the first right (a sign here says "admissions"). Williams Hall is the second building on your left. Enter either the front or the back and take either the stairs or the elevator to the third floor. Consult http://ithaca.edu for parking ideas.
