Student of the Month

Daniel Li competed in the ECOO and Canadian Computing Competitions this semester and then entered two programs separately in the Canada-wide University of Toronto Showcase Computer Science Fair 2011. Despite being nation-wide, his submissions were so good that they were as 2 of the 15 finalists at this year's competition on Saturday April 16. One submission was a website management system and the other was a portable bird watching guide. This is one amazing young man.
