Teaching Prof. Dan Garcia is quoted in a WBRC Fox 6 News article  which discusses how a group of Alabama teachers are working to expand computer science education opportunities for students in rural Alabama and inner-city Birmingham.  Garcia, who was part of the 2017 Alabama Teachers Computer Science Summit at The University of Alabama, praised efforts of teachers and advocates in Alabama and across the country, for their work to expand CS education. “Graduation day is the happiest day of my life, when I see all of the people who took my course four years ago, and got hooked on it,” Garcia said. “They can do anything. Every single industry is being affected by data.”
