Mohit Gurumukhani

Think of a random number between 1 and 10. Half the time, people choose from {3, 6, 7}. In my PhD, I study how to generate true randomness from weak random sources. While not doing that, I like to play chess, and just loiter around.

Rebecca Hicke

Czar czar

Hi y’all! I’m a PhD student working on computational humanities / NLP research. I love hanging out with my cats (who my roommate is definitely trying to steal), reading books + talking about them, and sending out Slack messages (the true czar czar requirement).

Picnic czar

Chicken served at CS Picnic Fall ‘25

Get a whole big thing of full-fat plain Greek yogurt. Add two tablespoons of salt, and a tablespoon each of cumin, ground coriander, dried mint, oregano, dried dill, cayenne, and paprika. Taste. It should taste way too salty, but try to sorta look through that and see if you want more heat (via cayenne), more earthiness (via cumin+coriander), etc. Add 8lbs of boneless skinless chicken thighs, each of which you have cut in half. Massage. Refrigerate overnight, and up to a day. Roast at 375 for an hour. At picnic location, grill for color and smokiness.

Noam (Nomi) Ringach

Czar czar

Hello! I’m a PhD student focusing in saying no to new responsibilities. Unfortunately, this is a new area of research for me and I have failed thus far (hence how I have this czarship). When I’m not baking, hiking, reading a book a friend has forced upon me, cajoling people into taking on a czarship, or updating this website, I like to spend my free time doing research with Eshan Chattopadhyay in pseudorandomness.

Hi! If you have a good dog that wants to help train with my less than stellar dogs, please reach out. We need you. Or, if you (human) would like to train with my less than stellar dogs, I also have tasks available. They are high energy but very cute (Australian Shepherds).

Hey, I’m Zach! If you receive an indecipherable message from me it was because my cat plopped on my keyboard. Outside of CS I enjoy playing video & board games, barbecuing, and woodworking.
