Harvard Mathematics Professor Shing-Tung Yau, one of this year’s two winners of the Wolf Prize in Mathematics, announced on Monday that he intends use his portion of the award to create a fund at China’s Tsinghua University to support the study of mathematics, especially among low income students...
...than anything has challenged me before,” Cutmore-Scott explains. “I’ve loved trying stuff that I am not really sure I can do. Like playing in Hasty Pudding was very much out of my comfort zone—I was a wolf and then a female swan—and that was a great experience.” Indeed, he has had the courage to play roles ranging from that female swan to Hamlet, and from a manipulative thug to a homesexual man during the Holocaust.
