Single session event
I will give a friendly introduction to some key ideas and tools in topology, including covering spaces and monodromy. The main example will come from square dancing, a hobby I picked up whilst a gradate student at MIT. No prior experience with topology or square dancing will be assumed. co-sponsor: Tech Squares.
