UW-Madison
Computer Sciences Dept.

For the longest time, I simply kept this page as a list of graduates. Over the years, however, I have come to realize that my graduate students are probably the most important part of my work, so I added this note. It is a great privilege to work with these men and women, teaching and (especially) learning from each of them.
