Dear Penn Community,
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, which was a semifinalist for the National Book Award and the Penn Reading Project selection for 2019-2020, 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 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.
