Bob DuCharme posts about another accolade awarded our sister campus.

If you were going to do academic research on the semantic web, the University of Maryland would have to merit your serious attention, because a lot of important work has gone on there and continues to do so. Is it pure coincidence that High Times magazine picked them as the number one school for “counterculture activity”?

Sigh… There is, of course, another University of Maryland campus that does a lot of research on the Semantic Web.

Unfortunately, we are just not in the same league as UMCP. Not only did we not even make the High Times list, we don’t even have a football team. Worse yet, our most successful intercollegiate team is the Chess team. It’s hopeless — we’ll never catch up.
