I am happy to provide you with a message to your class:

Students,  I am glad to see that you are embarking on a course in Computer
Architecture.  You are at an excellent university, and I am pretty sure you
are undertaking a challenging course.  Computer Architecture remains a
critical component of computer processing.  We have just scratched the surface
of all that is possible.  One word of caution I will offer -- with all the hype
about Machine Learning, Quantum Computing, and Approximate Computing, please be
cautious about jumping on one of these bandwagons.  They come and go.  But the fundamentals remain.  Make sure you understand the fundamentals thoroughly, because that is what will determine how high you can soar.  Good luck to you.

You have wonderful opportunities awaiting you.

Best regards,
Yale Patt
