From the date on the photo, it appears to be in a Database Management System class I took in spring of 2007 with Dr. Gordon. The center student, in apparent deep thought, is yours truly. So far, that was the one class that I didn't do as well in. I got a "B". That is ironic, since databases are the one thing that I've worked with continuously my whole programming career. Perhaps my hubris, or circumstances around switching jobs mid-semester, had something to do with my performance in that class. No matter, I still learned enough to make that class worthwhile.
Apparently this photo was in a large collection that the university has for the university website. Andrew quickly assured me that the university only picks photos of photogenic students to actually use on the web. He meant of course that no one ever saw the photo on the official university website ... We had a good laugh.
