In
The Netherlands, PhD candidates must wear white tie and tails, and the examiners
are in gowns. (Note that my orange is very appropriate, as the color was chosen
by Princeton in light of Nassau Hall (first building), which was named after
William III of England, who was part of the House of Orange-Nassau.) Here is a
picture of the examiners during the defense,
and the reception after. The exam was of Alex
Ballegooij at University of Amserdam.

This photo shows some of the EECS grad students and faculty at Princeton, in front of the E-Quad. From the people who are present, I'm guessing it was taken the summer of 1977 (but it could be 1978). Some of the folks pictured, besides myself, are Ed Sciore, Patrick Chen (?), Peter Honeyman, Udai Gupta, Carolyn Bjorklund, Shuky Sagiv, Shuky's wife Ilana (?), Alberto Mendelzon, Brad Dickinson (faculty), Mihalis Yannakakis, Mihalis's wife Maria-Elena, and Sam Toueg. The photo was courtesy of Alberto Mendelzon.
