Waterloo CS gets $25M donation. So it’s now the Cheriton School of Computer Science. Cheriton, who got a MMath and PhD from Waterloo, is a prof at Standford and is probably rolling in money as he was an early investor in Google.

All it takes is 25 million for the school to name themselves after you? Seems kind of lame. It is strange how broke-ass Waterloo seems to be. I guess they’d get more donations from Alumni if they didn’t treat their students like cows. If I ever end up with piles of cash, i’ll start a CS program at Guelph called “The Suck-It Waterloo School of Mathematics and Computer Science”.
