Students
One of the intents of this course is to promote networking. That
activity is promoted considerably when you know who everyone in the class is.
This is where I will post all of the student photos along with their names and
their self-submitted Biographies.
A larger image can be obtained by
clicking on the picture. Student who have included their Email addresses can be
contacted by clicking on their Names.
(NOTE: Al, Al and Al, who are listed below, don't
really belong to this class. Their style of biography presentation is
NOT necessarily condoned. Al's is actually very good, and along the lines of one you
should strive for, but not Al's nor Al's)

Biography |
Alan Greenspan
Al@TheFed.gov |
My Name is Alan Greenspan. I was born on March 6, 1926, in New York
City. I received a B.S. in economics (summa cum laude) in 1948, an M.A. in
economics in 1950, and a Ph.D. in economics in 1977, all from New York
University. I Entered UTEP because of it's multi-national environment, and I
was particularly attracted to the CIS Curriculum because of the balance
between technical and managerial courses (perhaps a slight bias toward the
former). I Enrolled in this course because I expect to gain a
rudimentary understanding of DB functioning. I understand the importance of
DBs in everyday life, and I hope this course will provide me with the basic
skills necessary to implement DBs. Nonetheless, I am somewhat concerned
about the amount of material to be covered; it seems to me that the
Professor is overly demanding. Perhaps that will be good. We will see. I
believe that my strengths are in the area of of Monetary Policy. Ten Years
from now, I would like to be involved in helping to shape U.S. policy. Maybe
even Chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank (Ha! Fat Chance!) |
Alfred E. Newman
(10:30 Class) |
I am a very sensitive kind of guy who enjoys women who enjoy sensitive
kind of guys. I was born in October. I don't remember the year. It might
have been 1982, or maybe it was 1928 (I always get those years mixed-up).
You can email me at (555) 1212. I was born in Los Angeles, about a block
from Times Square. I enrolled for the Biology Program at UMass, which is
kind of strange, considering I am in the CIS program at UTEP. I'm really
happy I am here because I love the ocean and all the green surroundings. I
am looking forward to this class because I love to cook (The E in my middle
name stands for Anchovy, but I bet you knew that!). I don't like the
instructor, because I don't like women with short green hair. My strength is
my intelligence. I am very smart. I know, because every time anyone asks if
I am a moron, I always say "NO". My weakness is Oriental women. I pay 178%
of my salary in alimony to them. Ten years from now, I would like to be
seven years younger than I am now. |
Al E. Stein
Al@utep.edu |
My full name is Al, but most people call just call me Al. I was born in
Princeton NJ, on April 1, 1982 (I remember that it was raining that day). I
entered the CIS program at UTEP because it is the finest program in the
country, and the faculty are the best in the world (especially the teacher
of this course! The man is absolutely Brilliant!!). I expect to learn all about
intelligence, artificial and otherwise, and to learn the tools necessary to
build Decision Support systems and Expert Systems (I'm really looking
forward to that!!). I think I will like just about everything this course,
although I hope there is no math involved (I'm not very good at it, and
besides, who would ever needs math? Not me, that's for sure!). I think my
strengths are in dealing with people. Most people think I'm a pretty funny
guy, and my close friends tell me I am a great dancer (as well as a snappy
dresser). Ten years from now, I would like to be the Director of IT for a
research center. Hopefully one directed toward scientific research. I have
this theory about something I like to call "next-of-kinitivity", but most
people think I'm a little crazy. If that doesn't work, I would like to be
managing a McDonald's. |
