  • Innovation happening this summer
    CS students Michael Dumont, James Loomis, and Benjamin Mayes each were accepted to participate in this year’s RIT Center for Student Innovation Undergraduate Summer Research Program. They will be working with CS faculty on projects they developed and will present to the RIT Undergraduate Research Symposium at the end of the summer. Congratulations to Michael, James, and Benjamin!

    McKay-Radziszowski Conjecture Proven
    Alexander Engström, currently at the Department of Mathematics UC Berkeley, recently wrote a paper titled A proof of the McKay-Radziszowski subgraph counting conjecture which solves a problem posed in the 1997 article by CS Professor Radziszowski jointly written with Brendan McKay from the Australian National University in Canberra. Engström's paper proves a subgraph counting identity conjectured by McKay and Radziszowski in the context of Ramsey numbers.

    Thirteen teams competed in the RIT high school programming contest
    The competition required teams to write complete programs that met particular specifications and details. The problems ranged from simple mathematical computations to complex puzzles with a real world twist. McQuaid Jesuit High School emerged as the winners of the competition. Webster Thomas High School placed second and Fairport High School placed third. Congratulations to all who participated.
