Hive mind: Do I know anyone from the #CarnegieMellon class of 1996 who's coming to Pittsburgh for their reunion next month?

okay, it looks like CMU's FTP server is... non-existent nowadays. Does anyone have a mirror where I can download all the files for the Mach microkernel?

Bus-ped crash!
This actually happened so close to #CMU campus.

Although there are other factors of course, signal design and driver behavior etc, I noticed also that the current street lighting conditions generated a #silhouette vision condition that can be avoided if the lighting is a bit further away on fifth ave (off set to Craig st).

Since everyone else is posting about #Challenger, I'll post something, too.

Here's the coverage from Carnegie Mellon University's newspaper, The Tartan. Astronaut Judith Resnik was a 1970 ECE grad. Resnik Hall is named in her honor.

I was in elementary school at the time. We had a snow day and I was with my dad at Loreski's Hobby Shop in Monroeville, buying supplies for a science fair project. We drove home in silence, listening to the news on KQV.

Judy Resnik โ€” In Memory
By VIJAY REDDY
Tartan News Editor

Carnegie Mellon held a memorial service
for 36 years old mission specialist Dr. Judith
Arlene Resnik who died in the Jan. 29 space
shuttle explosion. Judy Resnik was last
honored by Carnegie Mellon in 1985 when
she was awarded a Distinguished Alumni
Award.

Dr. Richard M. Cyert described Judy
Resnik as "a woman with a spine of steel"
who had goals and was determined to ac-
complish those goals. Provost Angel G. Jor-
dan said, "Judy always did what she wanted
to do, she died doing what she wanted to do,
exploring, looking for challenges."

Dr. Resnik was a classical pianist who
received her undergraduate degree in Elec-
trical Engineering from Carnegie Mellon in
1970. Judy was born April 5, 1949 in Akron,
Ohio. She graduated from Akron's Firestone
Senior High School in 1966.
After graduating from Carnegie Mellon,
Dr. Resnik joined the RCA Missile and Sur-
face Radar division in Moorestown, N.J. In
1974, she became a biomedical engineer and
staff fellow in the neurophysiology laboratory
of the National Institute of Health in
Bethesda, Md. While in Maryland she com-
continued on page 3"Carnegie Mellon mourns the loss of a truly distinguished alumna." -Jordan
Judy Resnik
continued from page 1
pleted her Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering at the University of Maryland in 1977. While working as a senior systems engineer with Xerox Corp. in 1978 she was accepted by NASA as an astronaut candidate. In August of 1979 she became an astronaut.

This flight would have been the second trip into space for Dr. Resnik. Her first flight on the maiden voyage of the Discovery in 1984 made her the second American woman in space. On that flight she logged 144 hours and 57 minutes in space, orbiting the Earth 97 times and covering 2.5 million miles.

Jordan announced that Carnegie Mellon has established the Judith Resnik Memorial Scholarship for women in Electrical and Computer Engineering. Anyone wanting to participate can send their contribution directly to President Cyert. Dr. and Mrs. Cyert has contributed $5000. The Jordans have contributed $3000. Jordan said, "Carnegie Mellon mourns the loss of a truly distinguished alumna.
