...Microsoft Research, started in 1991 as the first of its kind corporate computer science research lab, may well be more dynamic than any university computer science department. That's the way Rick Rashid, the senior VP in charge who was a professor at Carnegie Mellon, designed it . "For me basic research has to be first and foremost about moving the state of the art forward in computer science. We publish in peer reviewed journals just like professors so that our research is subject to the same purity of process that a university would have," says Rashid. "It's not about...
...Tigers promptly went out and reminded us all that they lost to Carnegie Mellon earlier this year by dropping a one-point decision against the Lions. Princeton overcame an 11-point second half deficit to take a three-point lead with under a minute to play. But then things got crazy.

As Iweala explains in a phone interview, he was first struck by the stories of child soldiers during his senior year in high school...
...very pleased to win the award and plans to use her findings to formulate a senior thesis topic. “I was initially just so surprised and excited,” said Scott, who spent the summer doing research among Native Americans in Oklahoma by means of the Mellon Foundation grant. Scott said that the AISES award was particularly meaningful because Harvard has a comparatively lower representation of Native Americans in comparison to other colleges. Currently the Harvard chapter of AISES only has eight members. “[Scott’s] success will really...
