Mathematician Mirzakhani, Princess of Persia

It's a wonderful story.  It's an inspiring story:  Iran’s state-run newspapers break with the country’s strict rules and show the mathematician Maryam Mirzakhani the way she was, with her head uncovered, as the country mourns her death at the age of 40

Mirzakhani was the first and (so far) only woman to be awarded a Fields Medal.  That was three years ago
The world will always have her work, and these stories.

Do you ask WHY? Reflections on everything uni.

1.
Just chill!
 
This 2017 commencement speaker studied Mechanical engineering (commonsense?) and Accounting (obsolescence?) at AUC.  What was the point? 

2.
The three-horned bull, whenever you're ready.

3.
The why of studying education?
 
Question everything, even the foundations.
