11 years ago this summer I participated in an Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program in Computer Vision at UCF. This summer marks the 30th time they conducted the program (which is an impressive feat to be able to get 30 years a funding from the NSF). To celebrate they are having a one day event at UCF on 18 July. The REU in 2006 was my first experience with research, and while my interests didn’t lie in computer vision, and it was my first step to my current career path. I am excited to go back to UCF to participate in this celebration.
