Thank You Dr. Crowley
As another semester draws to a close and many of us leave the university, we would like to take a moment to thank a very special member of the USC computer science department.
As faculty advisor for both UPE and ACM, Dr. Michael Crowley has been a driving force in the development of community amongst USC's computer science students. Without his help, UPE could not have become the organization it is today. Under his watchful leadership, there is no doubt that not just UPE, but the entire computer science department, will continue to grow and achieve new success.
In recognition of all the time and effort he has devoted to our chapter, and on behalf of the executive board of USC's chapter of Upsilon Pi Epsilon, please join us in extending our sincerest gratitude to Dr. Michael Crowley.
