Two things should bother you about Noether’s Theorem: (1) how come so few people have heard of Emmy Noether? and (2) why isn’t her theorem well known to lovers of science?

“I wish I always felt the way I did after Ransom’s speech.”

- Undergraduate science student, University of Texas

 

“In my role as Special Programs Coordinator, I engage speakers from a variety of disciplines to address our university students, faculty and outreach programs. Dr. Stephens’ speeches still elicit rave reviews years, even a decade later. Last week a former summer science student told me that Dr. Stephens’ talk was the turning point in his decision to pursue a science career. Ransom’s rapport with people of all ages is unique and he has a gift for presenting information in ways that are particularly relevant to teens and young adults. It’s rare to find a career scientist with such a give for communicating the essence of why one’s career choices matter and how to make them wisely. It’s even more rare to find someone who can deliver that information in such a compelling way.”
