Dear Penn Students,
As a final reminder, Cathy O’Neil, the author of the New York Times best-selling Weapons of Math Destruction: How Big Data Increases Inequality and Threatens Democracy, is coming to Penn TOMORROW, Tuesday, January 28 in celebration of Data Privacy Day!
Please join us for this thought-provoking discussion in the Penn Museum’s newly renovated Harrison Auditorium on Tuesday, January 28 from 6pm-7pm (33rd Street entrance doors open at 5:30pm). Admission is free and seats are first come, first served. Accessible seating available.
This is your last chance to submit questions for Cathy O'Neil about her book, data privacy, or any other question you may have for her. All selected questions will be announced tomorrow evening and the students who submitted them will win Airpods or bookstore prize packages. The deadline to submit questions is TODAY, January 27 at 5pm.
This Year of Data event is made possible by generous contributions from the Center for Public Health Initiatives, Math Department, Penn Libraries, Penn Program in Environmental Humanities, Price Lab for Digital Humanities, and Wolf Humanities Center.
