Fefferman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hi all, I have the following problem: a student in a course I am co-teaching on the basics of cryptography has actually become interested in the subject. She is an honors student at Rutgers who probably wants to major in political science. She wants to find someone in the field who is involved in the politics side of things. I'm at a loss for real life politics. :) I can handle the math/cs side, but hopefully one of you out there would be willing to talk to her about what it is like to think about policy issues and politics while still being a reasonably informed person about the science involved. If any of you have any inclination, I think all she is looking for are a few exchanged emails. (If you are interested, please let me know and I will send you her email address.) Thanks, Nina F. --- end forwarded text ----------------- Robert A.
