It seems a little odd to associate a jazz concert with a cake sale, but to complicate it with an actuarial science seminar takes it just over the edge. Maybe this is what the Department of Mathematics and Statistics was trying to achieve when they softened their seminar with a bit of jazz brought in by Samuel Broverman, a full-time professor in Actuarial Mathematics at the University of Toronto. Broverman, at 60, has never been able to separate his music from his math, and that’s what he did at the seminar on February 18.
