Dr. James Ascough is joining us via Skype from Fort Colllins, Colorado. He works for the USDA. Research engineer.

Ascough will likely testify about Daniel's accomplishments and work he did as a Colorado State student.

A program between USDA and CSU was set up. Students worked on objectives the USDA set forth. Brandon Daniel was hired for that program.

Ascough says students were asked to bring forth examples of Java programming. Daniel brought a bookkeeping/accounting program he help create

Ascough says Daniel's work was much better than the other students in the program.
