Computer Science Mischief
During the Fall 1999 semester the sophomore-level computer science classes were hit with a wave of pranks, jokes, guerrilla theater, and general all-around mischief... Meet the people behind it all!

Ah, the old CS212 gang just can't let go! We couldn't help but go back and sit in on Eli Barzilay's Y Combinator lecture... one last time
So when we found out what day it was, what else was there to do but to crash lecture in costume?!
The great Professor Sergei Artemov as Zorro - CS280 lecture just before Halloween.

Computer Science 314, Fall 1999, was the epicenter for all the CS Geek mischief...

And of course, for the last day of CS314 lecture, we just HAD to do something...

During lecture, the students look on as Hubert is forcibly removed by Government Agents.

And a toast to our professor of two semesters, lover of cows, and all around Cool Guy: Professor J. Gregory Morrisett!
Note the gift tie we got him, which he is wearing... could it be pictures of cartoon cows? And the cows are doing what?! (Shhh! Let's just say it's probably not appropriate for virgin ears!)
