Prof. Mintz gave the very first lecture I ever attended at @Penn. He tried teaching quantum computing to incoming freshmen — during orientation! Needless to say many pieces of chalk were broken that day. Couldn’t have asked for a better intro to Penn. RIP to a great professor Tweet added by Liam Dugan @LiamDugan_

Sad news. Prof Max Mintz was a pioneer in bringing #quantumcomputing to undergrad education back in the late 90s. He was a brilliant mentor & friend to me @Penn & we stayed in touch over the years. I am grateful for what he built & will miss him.
