Dear fellow Birck Colleagues: TEDxPurdueU, Purdue’s own independently organized TED conference, is scheduled to host their fourth annual flagship event from 6-10 p.m. on April 11 , in Loeb Playhouse at the university’s West Lafayette campus. The theme of TEDxPurdueU 2015 is “Meraki.” An untranslatable word from Modern Greek, it is used to describe doing something with passion, creativity, or love – when you undertake a task so intensely, that you nearly leave a physical piece of yourself in your work. The cost is $15 for students, but significant discounts would be given (25% group sale) if 10 or students would like to attend. Please see email thread below. Please let me know if you would be interested in attending this event by this Friday.
