New Mexico Junior College hosted another fantastic Pi Day celebration this year!

Each year, students, instructors, administrators, and community members of the town and surrounding cities gather to partake in the festivities, which include food, contests, art projects, and activities for folks of all ages. This family-friendly event promotes the fun and fascinating side of math.

Hawkes Learning’s Training and Support Specialist Kristen Thompson attended this year, and you can tell by the photos below that she and the hundreds of attendees had a blast!

The event was sponsored by New Mexico Junior College, Mu Alpha Theta (Math Honor Society), the J. F. Maddox Foundation, Tate Branch Auto Group, Hobbs Rotary, La Tienda, U.R.E.N.C.O, Permian Ford, Domino’s, O&S Quick Change, Rebecca Long Farmers Insurance, Big Cheese, Burrell Tucker, Walmart, and Option Inc./Threshold.
