Celebrating Pride Month 

As senior application developer Adelle Frank says, “At its heart, pride highlights key aspects of being human.” To celebrate Adelle and others from the LGBT+ community during Pride month, we’ve reached out to get some thoughts on what pride means to them, how to cultivate inclusivity, and what allies can do to support the LGBT+ community within the college.

– There are many inflection points in computer science history. One such moment continues to reverberate decades later. Save the Date for June 17 for a living history of The Debate that Changed Programming with School of Cybersecurity and Privacy Interim Chair Richard DeMillo and retired School of CS Professor Dick Lipton.



– Each year, one paper and software artifact from the previous year's Supercomputing (SC) conference is selected as the Reproducibility Challenge Benchmark for the next year's Student Cluster Competition. For SC21, School of CSE Profesor Srinivas Aluru's research group’s paper from last year was selected by the committee as the benchmark for the student competition. This is the second time a paper from Aluru's group has been selected. Congratulations to all!
