A beautiful moment at Artemis this summer:
(Note: Artemis is the free computer science summer program at Brown for middle school girls, for which I was a coordinator this summer)
At the end of the program our students gave presentations to the faculty, staff and students of the CS department. I invited a number of my friends who were doing research here over the summer. My students knew that I had some pretty nerdy friends. One student with an especially powerful attitude asked if the people she saw standing around were my friends. I said that they were, and she uttered four very powerful words: "Nerds can be hot."
