Mitchell, now a Sun Fellow at Sun Microsystems, wrote a student paper in 1965 about building a fast compiler. That's when he was called into Graham's office. "The teacher from the program was there, and the paper was on Graham's desk," Mitchell said. "He said, 'So, do you think you could really do this?' And I said 'Yes, with some extremely good programmers."'
