Nate Silver's speaking at Claremont McKenna in April. Nate invented PECOTA, the MLB player evaluation system, and runs the election blog FiveThirtyEight.com. I requested a few speakers last September and Nate was one of them. But I didn't know CMC had booked anyone until I saw the schedule a few hours ago.

So, this is pretty cool. Of course being able to do things like this entails significant cost - CMC is the 14th most expensive college in the country.

Liked what you read? I am available for hire.
