“I probably went through six different majors before Info Sci,” she said. There was math and economics, and she considered arts and sciences, maybe law. “What’s funny is Info Sci is a culmination of all those majors because it’s so interdisciplinary. That’s what made it interesting.”

“Looking back, as a student, I didn’t ever think, ‘I’m going to start a company,’” he said, “but I did gravitate to chances to practice what I was learning in class, which evolved into entrepreneurship. When opportunities present themselves you have to be ready to take them.”
