The stage of Sanders Theatre, the usual venue for a capella concerts and lectures on Shakespeare or Introductory Economics, was transformed last week into a four-day display of the latest in computer technology.
Many giants of the computer industry delivered their visions on the future of the Internet as part of the Harvard Conference on the Internet and Society held in Sanders and the Science Center from May 28 to 31.
"Selecting Sanders and the Science Center as venues is definitely one of the right decisions we made," Kung said. "You can't buy Sanders and no hotel even comes close," he added, emphasizing that the idea of holding the conference on campus appealed to many alumni.
"Fundamentally there is in fact a very close fit--a critical interlock--between the structures and processes of the Internet and the main structures and processes of university teaching and learning," Rudenstine told the Sanders Theatre audience.
The personal computer and the Internet will dominate communication in the future, according to William H. "Bill" Gates, chair and CEO of Microsoft, who spoke to a packed house in Sanders Theatre Wednesday.
