Pepperdine

Last week I gave a talk in the Natural Science Seminar series at Pepperdine University.  Located on the hills above Malibu, they have a spectacular view of the Pacific.

The view from Pepperdine

The invite came from Tim Lucas, who got his PhD from Duke in 2006. I had run into Tim a few months earlier at the Joint Math Meetings in New Orleans. The talks at Pepperdine run from 12:00-1:00. So I gave the talk and then we headed out to their cafeteria (with big windows opening on to the ocean.) A great way to spend the day.
