[comp.edu] MIT PhD info wanted!!

deb@allegra.UUCP (03/03/87)

Hi --
	Sorry to be repetitious, but the School of the Day is

		***MIT***

-------
I'm looking for info on MIT's PhD CS program, which I've just been
accepted into. I'm primarily interested in Computer Graphics/Image Processing.
Anything to say about it? About prelims? About area III? Comments about
professors, teaching requirements?
Drop me a line -- I'd love to hear it!!

If you have ANYTHING to say about MIT, be it good, bad
warnings, recommendations, feelings about the program,
school, area, (I'm talking ANYTHING) please send
me mail as soon as possible. I'm in great need of fast
info! Feel free to cross post this to anyplace you also
might think would generate responses.

	Thanks in advance,

		David Baraff	allegra!deb
		AT&T Bell Laboratories

P.S. This same message may be repeated later, with MIT
replaced with {CMU, Stanford, Caltech} depending on acceptances/rejections
received by me. Sorry for possible future repetition!!

"Computer Graphics" 19:4 (November 1985) pp. 113-150 has the latest edition
of the Computer Graphics Education Directory.  This has "objective"
information comparing gradute programs in computer graphics at all schools
that replied to the survey.  The next edition is in preparation now.

This should answer some of the questions prospective students have, although
for obvious reasons the important "subjective" information is not there.

Any school that has a program in computer graphics that is not listed in the
directory but wishes to be listed should contact Steve Cunningham, the chair
of the ACM SIGGRAPH Education Committee.  He can be reached at the following
address.
