Donald Green, professor of political science and director of the Institution for Social and Policy Studies, will demonstrate his new strategic game, OCTI, on Tuesday, Oct. 5, at 4 p.m. at the Yale Bookstore. OCTI is described as a cross between chess, checkers and "Risk," and touted as a challenging alternative to conventional board games. The public is invited to meet Green and play a round of two of OCTI with him. The event is free.
