But, before the Practice Session begins, its off to the UPE Business Meeting for recognition and scholarships...

Down at the bottom we see Nick Mansaurov of Moscow State and in the bottom right-hand corner, George Jeffreys. He and Dimitre Atannasov are Baylor grad students working on the contest web space we plan to roll out this year.

Plaques and scholarships are handed out to contestants by James Comer and Maria Petrie. Orlando Madrigal of UPE is in the background while Lonnie Winrich hands plaques to Maria. Not pictured are Bob Roggio (War Eagle) and Jeffery Popyack. Orlando was the director of the first ACM Programming Contest Regional held in 1970 at Texas A&M! UPE started at TAMU as well.

Holy Toledo! Here's Bob Roggio! Who knows? Maybe Jeffery will Popyack up later! Let's go back to the Practice Session...
