Rocky Kolb on Einstein's Cosmic Legacy @ Cultural Center
As part of U of C's Graham School of General Studies series of Works of the Mind Lectures, Dr. Kolb discusses Einstein's impact on our understanding of the universe. That may sound heavy, but Kolb is a pleasure to listen to, and will likely leave you understanding more than you thought you could. At 1 PM, in the 5th floor SW lecture room. Free, 78 E Washington. For more information, 312-744-6630 or visit the website.

Don't forget your helmet, gloves, and lunch money. Otherwise, free. For more information, contact Kathy Schubert at kangarookathy [at] yahoo [dot] com or 773-248-5499, or visit the website.
