Students, faculty, and friends answered questions about pi, current events, and... their professors.

Brown’s undergraduate BMES group celebrated Pi day with pi, pie, science, scientist, and other trivia. Six teams of students, faculty, and friends answered questions across 5 different categories on a Jeopardy-inspired board.  Categories included BME X-Wo/men Origins, Is it science?, The Secret Lyfe of Blueno, PI(E), and It’s Im(bio)material. Showing off their knowledge of facts about Brown, their professors, and puns, the team “BME-Z Does It” finished as victors.  The team included BME concentrators Kelly Williams ’19, Tom Skipper ’19, Colette Bare ’19, Hannah Blakely ’19, Abby Skerker ’19, Carly Kabelac ’19, along with their engineering colleagues Bryan Hong ‘19 and Tobias Rickman '19.
