In my opening remarks at #NDSS18 today, I took a few minutes to talk about the process we took as a Program Committee to build the program. My goal is to increase transparency and improve the academic reviewing experience. (long thread) 1/
![Dear professor,
I have a very talented student from [redacted] who majored in mathematics and computer science. She has been working as a data mining engineer in [redacted], one of the most prominent tech companies in China for two years. She has been considering coming back to the States to study further in data science.
She has decided to quit this Fall from [redacted] for more research oriented experience. She is looking for a research opportunity under a professor of great reputation. I’m wondering if you would be able to take her as one of your mentees.
If that is a possibility, she is willing to make a small donation around 200,000 USD to your research projects to help facilitate your ongoing programs. Her family is philanthropic in China and America, so further opportunities might also arise in the future.
Please let me know if that would be something interesting to you. Thank you very much.](/api/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpbs.twimg.com%2Fmedia%2FFhQN9lxWYAAaYRF.jpg)
