As expected, I learned a lot on my recent trip to the AMCIS conference in San Francisco. One striking thing is the incredibly high quality of new Ph.D.s in MIS. I met so many talented people, and interviewed as many as I could for our faculty position at RIT (http://bitly.com/ritmis). While advantageous for RIT, [...]

I just returned from an invigorating two days at my first NSF Future INternet Design (FIND) community meeting. As you may know, Golisano Computing colleague Nirmala Shenoy and I were fortunate to have a grant accepted for this program.

What I learned quickly at this meeting is that the FIND community are a VERY impressive group [...]

Way back in 2006, a group of RIT faculty: DeMartino, Hull, Hair and I proposed a new course in Digital Entrepreneurship. The NCIIA funded the research and development that went into it, and I became its instructor. Last Spring, we offered it for the first time, and it was an exceptional learning experience.

I am happy [...]
