     FWIW,

     - Andrew Yao received his first PhD from Harvard.

     - Leslie Valiant taught at Harvard.

     - Christos Papadimitriou taught at Harvard.

     - Michael O. Rabin teaches at Harvard.

     - Kenneth E. Iverson received a Masters degree from Harvard
       and taught there for half a decade.

     - Stephen Cook received Masters and PhD degrees from Harvard.

     - Dennis M. Ritchie received undergraduate and PhD degrees
       from Harvard.

     - Ivan Sutherland taught at Harvard.

     - Butler Lampson did his undergraduate work at Harvard.

     - Fred Brooks received the PhD from Harvard.

     - Edmund M. Clarke taught at Harvard.

     - E. Allen Emerson earned his PhD from Harvard.

     If these names seem unfamiliar, look up "Turing Award" and
"Knuth Prize."
