Twenty years ago Stanford recruited me to become Chair of Computer Science, and a little later CMU talked to me about becoming Dean of the School of Computer Science. Of course, these are administrative recruitments and a somewhat different animal than recruiting senior professors to bring money, prestige and leadership to a department that needs it (neither Stanford nor CMU needed it). My feelings about these recruitments were very mixed; proud that I was wanted at a leading institution (independent of the fact that I had been rejected by them earlier), but also a little concerned that both institutions were looking outside for leadership. Berkeley EECS, for example, always recruits departmental (and College) leadership from within, and there has always been a generation of faculty with the skill and desire to assume that leadership. For someone from the outside, the internal minefields and politics were unfathomable. At the end of the day, I realized that I had been shaped by and benefited enormously from the academic culture at Berkeley, and wasn't going to go anywhere else. Stanford and CMU ultimately did look inward, and found great people for those roles. So I guess the point of my story is it is better to be recruited back to your old school, than to be recruited to a school that rejected you earlier.” 万青 : 用博大精深的中文归纳 : 曾经沧海难为水。 不在上好的学校，而在对自己喜欢的事情的执着追求 FW: I used his textbook on logic design for my class SIE 370 four years in a row ， normally I changed textbook every semester.
