Computers are our future. That mantra has been hammered home for the better part of three decades. In the 1980s, colleges began shifting their focus for major programs to computer science, technology and information systems. Their prerequisites for students included classes learning spreadsheets and databases, among other things.

Now, in 2012, one school has eliminated their Computer Science department altogether to save $1.7 million dollars. That school, the University of Florida, has suspiciously increased their athletic department budget to the tune of $2 million dollars.

Obviously this has caused a bit of an uproar with students, alums and Computer Science scholars around the globe.

Students at UF have already organized protests, and have created a website dedicated to saving the CS department. Several distinguished computer scientists have written to the president of UF to express their concerns, in very blunt terms. Prof. Zvi Galil, Dean of Computing at Georgia Tech, is “amazed, shocked, and angered.” Prof. S.N. Maheshwari, former Dean of Engineering at IIT Delhi, calls this move “outrageously wrong.” Computer scientist Carl de Boor, a member of the National Academy of Sciences and winner of the 2003 National Medal of Science, asked the UF president “What were you thinking?”

In a society where almost everything we do depends on computers, this seems like an awfully strange move. We’ll wait and see if the University of Florida has any response but for the time being, it appears they’ve replaced computers for footballs.

That’s one expensive pigskin.

Wow, what a coincidence. Two schools in Florida involved in major NCAA scandals at the same time? That Nevin Shaprio I tell ya—dude certainly had a lot of time on his hand.

Hopefully, Tim Tebow was able to withstand the charm of that snake and rapist.

There are lots of terrible things you could find when Googling yourself…derogatory things being said, maybe even a rogue sex tape with your stuffed Care Bears. But how about your face linked with a murder? That’s what happened to University of Florida student Zachary Garcia. Garcia ]]>

There are lots of terrible things you could find when Googling yourself…derogatory things being said, maybe even a rogue sex tape with your stuffed Care Bears. But how about your face linked with a murder? That’s what happened to University of Florida student Zachary Garcia.

Garcia learned about his face being used in connection to a murder charge after searching for himself on Google. Garcia told local news station WTSP:

“I was just very shocked to find my picture and the article saying that I was convicted of a felony murder charge,” he said, “and I was just very shocked and angry that someone put my name up there and said I did something I didn’t do.”

The situation arose when four teens committed a robbery of a home and the homeowner shot and killed one of them. Due to that teen’s death coming during a felony involving all four, the other three teens were charged with murder.

One of the teens charged was named Zachery Garcia, a letter off from the UF student. This led to police using the latter’s picture associated with the crime.

At least that got cleared up. Nothing could be worse than having someone with your name doing lame things. Like the guy who has my name and goes around helping charities and doing nice things for people. It’s damaging my street cred, bro. I have to kick five old women in their hollow uterus for every toy drive you initiate just to keep things at zero. Cut the crap.
