Special Seminar: Paradoxes and Infinity

In this class we'll explore several popular paradoxes and attempt to wrap our brains around the world of infinity. For example, we'll discover a hotel that's never full: somehow, this hotel can always add another guest, or two, or three. We'll also run into paradoxes about goats, haystacks, pop-quizzes and more. If you're interested in mind-bending ideas and theories and have a background in basic algebra, this class is for you!
