MIT's Youngest Graduates
MIT News Office, June 2009
When the Technology Children's Center opened in the Stata Center in the summer of 2004, it was the first center to offer infant care on campus -- and these four children were among its first enrollees...
Family of three aims for 2 MIT degrees
Kathryn M. O'Neill, MIT News Office Correspondent, June 2007
MIT has been a family affair for Nima and Sanjay Subramanian. This year it's Nima's turn to graduate from the Leaders for Manufacturing Program. Next year it will be Sanjay's. It's a little early for their son, Ashwin, to earn a degree. He's only 4. But, he'll have his own goodbyes to say at the Technology Children's Center (TCC)...
Blurred Boundaries - The boundary between work and play is blurred in the Stata Center
Technology Review, July 2005
Members of the community all know that while every MIT building has a number, not every building is referred to by its number. Some are referred to only by name. Knowing which is which is part of MIT-speak. The number/name dichotomy is not arbitrary. Here is the principle: if the building is work, wholly work, and nothing but work, it rates a number.

Grinning tots populate new lot

Their average height is about three feet and they share a keen interest in tricycles....
Child Play - A Stata-the-art center for kids
Spectrum, Fall 2004
Children are now housed in an academic building for the first time in the history of MIT. The Technology Children's Centers at MIT recently opened its newest child care facility inside the newly constructed Stata Center, a 2.8-acre twisting complex of brick, metal, and glass designed by world-famous architect Frank Gehry. This landmark building was designed not solely for kids but to bring together for the first time experts in the areas of electrical engineering, computer science, artificial intelligence, linguistics, and philosophy....
