“This illustration, for Amherst College, goes along with an essay by a former student who learned to program computers in the basement of an old building on campus back when computers where the size of rooms & Amherst had no formal computer programming courses. According to the essay, the school entered the age of computing with a bit of a lurch, and it began with this ragtag group of self-taught programmers who hung out in the basement of Converse Hall.” – Shaw Nielsen
