Aho was my CS Theory professor at undergrad. He was incredibly polite and in my opinion, quite compassionate towards his beleaguered CS students. Cheers to him

- sebastian_z 6y agoAgreed! (as a former MS student)
- vlads 6y agoSame. Aho was one of the nicest professors of my undergrad studies. He was also one of the few who actually taught well, and who placed a heavy emphasis on understanding the basics and then being able to build on top of that.
- bradneuberg 6y agoAlfred Aho taught my Software Engineering I and II courses at Columbia University when I was an undergrad, and they were my favorite Computer Science courses. He was a great, compassionate teacher, with a mix of theoretical and real world instruction. Really a highlight for me. Glad to hear he won the Turing Award.
