Many people was involved in the establishment of SCS, Crecine was one of these guys. SCS was originally proposed in 1986 by computer science department head A. Nico Habermann and then-CMU provost Angel Jordan. CSD first became an independant department outside college of sciences . Ceyrt elevated CSD to SCS in 1988. Crecine did not come to GTech until 1987. Its pretty obvious the original idea of an indepenent computer science college had started at CMU. But GTech was the first public school in the country and it's concepts are closed related to CMU. Also Crecine reorganized GTech to made it a world class tech school. Much of the reorganization idea came from his tennure experience at CMU. https://www.cs.cmu.edu/scs25/history
In 1976, he became dean Carnegie Mellon's Dietrich College of Humanities and Social Sciences and Professor of Political Economy in the Department of Social and Decision Sciences and in the School of Urban and Public Affairs (now Heinz College). As Dean he conceived of and implemented a core curriculum, described by the Education Editor of the New York Times as "the most innovative in America," and added departments of Statistics, Social and Decision Sciences, Philosophy, and several research centers in the cognitive sciences, design, and computational linguistics to the College. Following a year as Visiting Fellow Commoner at Cambridge University, he was appointed Senior Vice President and Provost in 1983, with administrative responsibility for Carnegie Mellon's academic, research, and systems development in computing Andrew Project and computer science and initiated, with Prof. Raj Reddy, the formation of the Carnegie Mellon School of Computer Science (which became the first such college in the country). He was also the founding chief executive officer of the Inter-university Consortium for Educational Computing, an association of research universities. In 1986, he was the first chief administrative officer and oversaw the founding of the University Athletic Association, an NCAADivision III Conference.
Crecine returned to Carnegie Mellon in the fall of 2006 as Distinguished Service Professor at the Heinz College.
In 1987, Dr. Crecine became the ninth president of the Georgia Institute of Technology. In addition to his administrative responsibilities, Dr. Crecine held a joint appointment as tenured professor in the new School of International Affairs, and the School of Industrial and Systems Engineering. During his tenure, he initiated the establishment of three new colleges at Tech: the College of Computing (the first such college in the country); the Ivan Allen College of Management, Policy, and International Affairs; and the College of Sciences. He also served as Chairman of the Georgia Tech Athletic Association and as President of the Georgia Tech Research Corporation. During his tenure as President, the College of Engineering's ranking climbed from 14th to 9th in the country, the institution was transformed from a specialized institution to a top-30 national university, SAT scores of Fall entering freshmen for 1992, 1993, and 1994 rose to become the highest of any public research university in the U.S., graduation rates increased by nearly 12 percent, student facilities and housing (including those under construction) were doubled from those of the previous 102 years of the institution’s existence, and sponsored research awards more than doubled.
CMU校园和MIT类似，但是比MIT清新漂亮。 后面还连着STATE PARK。眼见为实，参观大学校园是很有必要的。
皮茨堡大学的那个尖顶楼也很好看。旁边的博物馆，VERY NICE。
两校园给人非常干净的感觉。
这是我第二次去皮茨堡。上次除了给儿子当啦啦队，管后勤，哪也没去。
体育比赛和数学比赛的区别是，送孩子体育比赛的家长，基本上一直和孩子同呼吸共命运。送数学比赛的家长，孩子比赛的时候，家长们自己找地方瞎溜达。
BTW， 我家孩子这次是去捧场当分母的。
参观以后，就再也不是了。
孩子数学比赛，家长很无聊。孩子球赛，家长比孩子还投入。
CMU学应用数学怎么样？娃想学数学，但又不是大牛，coding比较好，但估计SCS进不去，也觉得本科就学CS是不是有点...
教授和项目都巨多。这是有历史原因，当年美国和苏联搞冷战，发展计算机和人工智能，美国用国家的大笔钱投入了MIT, CMU 和Stanford 用来发展研究 （这事放现在肯定不行，用纳税人的钱支持少数几个学校，别的学校会闹），从此这三家就一直领先。
看看这几年竞赛情况,兴趣发展再说
跑得慢也照犇不误啊！
德州的小朋友这回都没来，版上某位家长的牛娃，拿了个单项第一。
哪位啊？ 不管是谁，祝贺他们
Gates 楼设计别具一格，连接的楼道像九曲桥似的。 里面的 Tepper bussiness school 进门的大厅里 挂了很多Nobel laureates 的画像，看上去挺牛的样子。撒落在图书馆里的按摩椅可免费使用！哈哈
It was established by the then president John Patrick Crecine, who was a former of CMU and cofounder of SCS.
小中男要进S可没那么容易，我周围还没有小中男被录取过。
CMU的是Richard Cyert建立

我反正是很不喜歡ED的。结婚都还可以离婚，买東西也可以退货，凭什么學校就要定死。
