Illinois ASE student participated in CRA Graduate Cohort for Underrepresented Minorities and Persons with Disabilities (URMD Grad Cohort)

CRA Graduate Cohort for Underrepresented Minorities and Persons with Disabilities (URMD Grad Cohort) was held on March 16-17 in San Diego, CA. One Illinois ASE Ph.D. student, Wing Lam, attended in this iteration of the Grad Cohort Workshop, which was the first gathering of its kind hosted by CRA. Wing also presented a poster titled "A characteristic study of bug reports" during the workshop (see https://cra.org/events/urmgradcohort/#agenda_PDF for more details). The workshop aimed to increase representation of minorities in computing research by building and mentoring nationwide communities through their graduate studies and is modeled on the highly successful CRA-W Grad Cohort Workshop for Women.
