[tor.general] Royal Canadian Institute Public Lectures

hugh@hcrvx1.UUCP (Hugh Redelmeier) (10/29/86)

The RCI presents a series public lectures each year (free
admission).  Several of the lectures this fall look interesting to
me, so I though I would post a partial list.  For more information,
phone the RCI at 928-2096 (I have no idea what their "business hours"
are).

November 2:	H.S.M. Coxeter: "Coloured Symmetry, Illustrated by
		Escher's Pictures"

November 9:	W.E. McLeod: "The Ancient Egyptian Composite Bow"

November 16:	John Sewell: "Reassesing Don Mills and the Design
		of Suburbs"

November 23:	J.M. Pasachoff: "The Sun and Solar Eclipses"
		(This is a joint meeting with the Royal Astronomical
		Society of Canada.)

November 30:	P.J. Caplan: "The Myth of Women's Masochism"

These lectures are given in the Medical Sciences Auditorium at the
University of Toronto.  Parking is free.  Lectures start at 15:00.

These lectures have a long and honourable tradition (this is the
138th session!).  I hope this posting will bring them to the
attention of more people.
