Jody's Trip to Lima, Peru
During spring break '99 I was invited to give lectures on my
research in Lima, Peru. My first lecture was in the Raul Porras
Barrenchea Chamber (see photo) of the Peruvian Congress and my
second talk was in the School of Mathematics of the
Universidad de San Marcos, the oldest university in the
Americas. They were by special invitation of Dr. Edith Mellado
Cespedes, Presidenta de la Comision de Ciencia y Tecnologia. I
went with Professor Jim Kuypers (Office of Speech), who also
gave a lecture in the Congress. We were hosted by Dr. Jose Elice
Navarro (see photo), Director General of the Congress of Peru,
and Dr. Covesca Piedra (see photo), La Oficialia Mayor del
Congreso. We also went to Cuzco and Macchu Picchu (see photo)
and several other villages in the Andes Mountains during the
trip.
