  • Abstract
    The contributions of Nancy R. Mead have greatly shaped what software engineering education and training (SWEET) is today. This paper contains three tributes to Dr. Mead, each focusing on a different aspect of her legacy. The first tribute provides an overall view of her work in the SWEET field. The second essay describes her research contributions in SWEET. The final section discusses her role in the development of this conference and the challenges of building upon the solid foundations that Nancy Mead has provided the field.
