Pi(e) Day!

Happy Pi day!

Pi day is the annual celebration of the mathematical constant π. Pi Day is observed on March 14th every year since the first three digits of Pi are 3, 1, and 4. On March 12, 2009, the U.S. House of Representatives passed non-binding House Resolution 224, which recognized National Pi Day. The resolution was passed, in part to, as the resolution states "reinforce mathematics and science education for all students in order to better prepare our children for the future and in order to compete in a 21st Century economy."

For our Pi day celebration, we have pulled together a collection of famous pie-related historical documents.
