The wall covered with numbers of Pi and the symbol.
On Friday, March 14, during lunch in the quad, a Pi Day contest was held. Whoever could remember the most digits of Pi could win a fun prize. Freshman William Rebar was the winner and recited 130 digits of Pi. In 2009 Congress made Pi Day a holiday on March 14. The Ancient Greeks and especially Archimedes were fascinated by circles and the other shapes so they started with the circle and they really could not figure out how to calculate Pi with this circle, so when Archimedes came to help he used his own method called the Archomedes method and used his own method to figure out what the circumference of the circle was and what Pi really is.
