Arthur was recognized by Duke Speed. Duke nominated Arthur because "Every single interaction I have with Arthur is a positive one. I have never walked away from a meeting or presentation with him feeling like I accomplished little. He also is never shy to offer advice if you ask, and I find his advice to be some of the most helpful that I've received throughout my career with the university. And he does this all while he's taking classes to further his own education! I have never heard a negative review of him from any CS students, which is a very rare thing in our department. If I had to pick one CS Staff to throw all of my tuition at, it would be Arthur."
