Profs: They're Just Like Us! Math and Music Edition
October 27, 2014 at 6:15 am
In this edition of Profs: They're Just Like Us, you're getting two for the price of one. Spotted at the Penn Symphony Orchestra concert this weekend, we see SEAS professor Dr. Buchsbaum groovin' along to the bass talent of math professor Dr. Cahn.
When he's not teaching you how to calculate the frequency of a linear, time-independent signal, Dr. Buchsbaum is listening to the frequencies generated by a linear, time-independent symphony orchestra. He's just like us: prefers to sit with his spouse in a 5-foot radius of empty seats. Professors have pleasant afternoons too!
And who knew Cahn played in Symphony Orchestra!? Just like us, she has better things to do than homework and studying. Anyway, whatever it is that makes math people more in tune with music, we can only say that we're grateful it brought these two profs together.
