The old web site of CCSU Computer Science Department have passed away peacefully. It faithfully served the department for waaaaay too many years and will be sorely missed. We grieved profusely over many sleepless days and nights. Finally, it was time to get a replacement, but we couldn't find anyone to design a web site as unique, well-crafted and stylish as the old one. So we had to settle for a cheap imitation, which is exactly what you see now.
