Congratulations Tim It couldn't have happened to a better person!
Fantastic! A very memorable lecturer clearly extremely fond of his subject. Even though I wasn't particularly taken with Computer Science, I still enjoyed Tim's lectures. Very well deserved!
Congratulations to a very tallented and committed teacher.
I met him once, he has a pulse, a soul, presence and liveability. He knows his stuff. UC are blessed to have him on side, I hope they appreciate his contribution. Go Tim Bell
I am very happy, but not at all surprised, to hear this news. Tim is one of the smartest and one of the nicest people around. The smartest people are those who can make what they do seem effortless, and teaching CS to children (incl through the use of music) is a great example of that. Tim is an example for us all to aspire to.
Congratulations Tim - well deserved! 😀
Whakamihi Tim. Such a richly deserved recognition of all your mahi. Ahead of your time, your research and education has been impact-focused forever. Nga mihi lucy
