Join us Monday, September 23, 11:15 a.m. – 12 p.m., in Kathryn Mohrman Theatre for the Block 2 First Monday, “Colorado in Context: Democracy, Representation, Fairness, and Math.” CC Associate Professor Beth Malmskog will discuss how math can help identify and prevent partisan gerrymandering and share her research group’s work for fair maps in Colorado’s 2021 redistricting process. We will also look briefly at what mathematics can say about other ways to pursue better representation, including alternative voting methods and multi-member districts. Math can offer surprising insights into democracy and fairness.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n

Over Memorial Day Weekend, five members of the CC Climbing Team, along with nearly 400 other climbers from around the country, traveled to Arizona for the\u00a02024 Collegiate National Championships<\/a>. Conor Wellman \u201925, Noah Wheeler \u201925, Benn Wheeler \u201927, Melanie Robertson \u201926, and Sonia Gutierrez \u201927 represented the Tigers in all three areas of the competition and both Gutierrez and Benn Wheeler placed high enough to qualify for the upcoming World Championship.<\/p>\n

\u201cNationals this year was the biggest it\u2019s been since I\u2019ve started competing on the collegiate circuit, and the level of competition increased dramatically from past years,\u201d says Wellman, a Computer Science and Math major. \u201cThe sport has grown immensely, and each year there are more and more talented freshmen coming in. Considering the drastic shift in difficulty, it was incredibly impressive to see the CC team continue to produce strong results.\u201d<\/p>\n

Four CC students spent their summer in the heart of New York City, interning at the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH), where they experienced a hands-on, professional geology environment.<\/p>\n

Makena R. Hatch \u201926, Elizabeth Spradlin \u201927, Corra Lewis \u201927, and Mac Schwartz \u201927 were participants in the Noblett-Witter Family Internship Program, which was generously established by Bill Witter \u201987. The CC Geology Department partners with companies, government agencies, and non-profit organizations, such as the AMNH, to host internships for Geology students from CC. The Witter Family Fund provides the interns with weekly stipends and covers the cost of travel to and from the internship location. The aim of the Internship Program is for students to gain skills and experience by doing hands-on work and learning fundamental methods that they may use in potential careers.<\/p>\n

Alfred Hitchcock is considered to be one of the most influential filmmakers in cinema history. His oeuvre is taught in many film schools, and he is regarded as “The Master of Suspense.” His definition of suspense was simple: “There is no terror in the bang, only in the anticipation of it.” With over 50 films in his filmography and a career that spanned six decades, Hitchcock\u2014whose close friends called \u201cHitch\u201d\u2014is an icon of classic Hollywood. Who was this man who influenced so may contemporary filmmakers? We will look behind the scenes of some of his most iconic work and under the covers of the man himself. What’s up with Hitch? Let’s find out.<\/p>\n

This lecture<\/a>, happening Friday, Sept. 27, 5:30-6:30 p.m.<\/strong> at the FAC, coincides with the theatre production of\u00a0Dial M for Murder<\/em>, the murder mystery that inspired one of Alfred Hitchcock\u2019s movie masterpieces, at the FAC from Sept. 19\u2013Oct. 6, 2024.<\/p>\n
