The only reason I got a PhD from Stanford is because that was the only place where I could do that research. Getting a job at MIT didn't make me happy, so I thought it would. All of these mentors that I had that all along the way really encouraged me down that path. Even when I look back at Joking Leak, my dad, when he was younger, gave me a nickname. He used to call me professor. I have no idea why; I think it's because I had a very large head.
MIT Professor of Mechanical Engineering Cullen Buie discusses his journey through science, God and making a name for himself at The Veritas Forum at Caltech.
