Celebrating 50 Years of Computing Innovation, Achievement and Leadership

September 10, 2008

Even before the arrival of UC’s first computer in 1958, UC alumni, faculty and staff had already distinguished themselves in the new world of computing. From the arts and entertainment, to medicine, business and science, UC has had a positive impact on the computing world.

The goal of this conference is to highlight these achievements and to recognize those who have played a vital role in advancing the field of computing in their respective disciplines. The conference will serve as a way for alumni to reconnect with UC, students to learn more about computing history, and faculty in all areas to see how computers have enhanced their own field of study.

The celebration kickoff begins Monday, November 10, with a reception and dinner at the Kingsgate Marriott Conference Hotel, featuring the Keynote Address delivered by Robyn Render. Tuesday, November 11, features a number of presentations by UC faculty, staff, and alumni, followed by a wine and cheese reception at the Cincinnati Observatory Center.

Listen in as Russ McMahon talks about why this history is so important to our community.  Sponsorships are still available for the conference. For more information contact Russ McMahon at russ.mcmahon@uc.edu or visit http://www.uc.edu/conferencing/Details.asp?ConferenceID=304
