SUMMARY:The Brave Nu World\, Physics Department Colloquium\, André 
 de Gouvêa\, Northwestern University
DESCRIPTION:Neutrinos are the most elusive of the known fundamental pa
 rticles. Nonetheless\, over the last 15 years\, heroic experimental ef
 forts aimed at understanding neutrinos have discovered that neutrinos 
 are more interesting than originally dictated by the standard model of
  particle physics. After introducing the neutrinos\, I will discuss ho
 w we came to discover that they have tiny but nonzero masses\, comment
  on the most recent observations\, and try to explain why this is a bi
 g deal. I will then describe some of the fundamental questions related
  to neutrinos\, and how we hope to answer some of them in the near fut
 ure.
