Science on Screen is back for a third year! A series of films paired with presentations from scientists and scientific thinkers. Presented in collaboration with STEM Librarian Dan Chibnall and STEM@DRAKE.

Presentation:
Have you ever wondered how waves in the ocean form? Why are some tiny & manageable while others are huge & treacherous? In this presentation, Terrance Pendleton, Associate Professor of Mathematics at Drake University, will not only explain the math and science behind how waves form, including the most dangerous tsunamis, but also how to possibly predict them in the future.

Film Details:
In Los Angeles, a gang of bank robbers who call themselves The Ex-Presidents commit their crimes while wearing masks of Reagan, Carter, Nixon and Johnson. Believing that the members of the gang could be surfers, the F.B.I. sends young agent Johnny Utah to the beach undercover to mix with the surfers and gather information.
