"California Chosen as Home for Computing Institute"

The May 1, 2012 NY Times article "California Chosen as Home for Computing Institute" covers the $60 million theoretical computing center to be hosted at UC Berkeley. UCB College of Engineering Dean and TRUST PI S. Shankar Sastry is quoted elsewhere as saying that the goal of the institute will be to "bring into the educational mainstream, the role of computing and theory of computational science."
