Gates has praise for university research model
San Diego Union-Tribune, NEIL MORGAN, May 28 – Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates was at the University of California, San Diego yesterday to discuss the future of computer technology. Gates said that Microsoft uses university research as a model "instead of the corporate model."

Before the lecture, Gates was on the La Jolla campus to talk with UCSD Chancellor Robert C. Dynes, UCSD trustee Lou Simpson, and Larry Smarr, director of the new UCSD California Institute for Telecommunications and Information Technology.
