+          The UPL is a lab in the computer science department that provides a
+          space for students with an interest in computer science to meet each
+          other, work on projects together, and participate in events. The UPL
+          tradition has been carried on since the 1980s, under the advisorship
+          of Professor Barton Miller and an unbroken lineage of elected student
+          coordinators.
