The University of Pennsylvania
Last week I accepted the University of Pennsylvania's offer to study for a PhD (in PL). A few cool people there:
- Benjamin Pierce
- Rajeev Alur
- Stephanie Weirich
- Steve Zdancewic
- Val Tannen
- Ben Taskar
- Fernando Pereira
I'm really excited!

I think you're also supposed to notify your friends of these kinds of big decisions before they find out a week later by being subscribed to your blog's rss feed ;) Congratulations!Steven Oliver (oliver.steven@gmail.com)
Congratulations,I was recently accepted to study for my masters as well. On the same note, though, pardon me for being an idiot, but what does PL stand for?

PL is "programming languages", which is itself a shorthand for programming language theory. Pierce, Weirich, and Zdancewic all do it; Val Tannen used to.I'm not sure where a good place to start reading about it is...maybe just take the course in the Fall?
