Happy Pi Day Wolverines! With midterms coming in the next few weeks, grab a slice of your favorite pie and study the mathematical number π to celebrate this sweet day.
"Pi is not just a collection of random digits. pi is a journey; an experience; unless you try to see the natural poetry that exists in pi, you will find it very difficult to learn." - Antranig Basman.
