"Science-Driven Plays Put Reason and Emotion on Display"
"Last week, Caltech's Feynman Lecture Hall was transformed into a modern-day Greek theatre. Actors moved all around the space with fervor, portraying the life story of Chien-Shiung Wu, an American experimental physicist who, in the 1950s, famously proved that parity, a type of symmetry in particle physics, is not conserved—a finding that opened the door to a better understanding of why there is more matter than antimatter in the universe."

The University of Notre Dame recently conferred an honorary doctor of engineering degree on Mary Boyce — professor of mechanical engineering and dean emerita of Columbia Engineering— at its 2026 Commencement. She also delivered the Graduate School Commencement keynote on May 16.

During her tenure as dean, she transformed Columbia Engineering, attracting exceptional talent and elevating the school to be among the top engineering programs in the nation.
