Get into the holiday spirit
There is no better way to start off your holiday season than by hearing the gorgeous, translucent voice of a brilliant songstress bringing to life all of your favorite Christmas classics. Sara Gazarek is a California-based jazz vocalist with five albums to her name, including the critically and commercially acclaimed 2012 release “Blossom & Bee.” While relatively new to the jazz scene, Gazarek’s quickly developed a fan following amongst jazz and mainstream music lovers and respected musicians.
Math contest equates to growth, popularity
In 16 years it’s tripled in size, peaking this fall with more than 300 students representing 24 high schools from across Northeast Pennsylvania. BU’s annual Math Contest has become quite the targeted fall event for many schools, some of which enter multiple teams to compete in brainteasers, quiz bowl, and the popular Game of 24 card challenge.
Along with the Math Club, students and faculty from the Department of Mathematics, Computer Science and Statistics coordinate and run the all-day contest. The three competitions vary in difficulty and work off a foundation of geometry, trigonometry, algebra, logic and statistics. Adding to the contest’s popularity are several alumni, who once volunteered as BU students, now high school teachers bringing their students back to campus as competitors. #CollaborativeLearning
