Anyone knows the origin of this representation? I've seen a professor use it years ago and I thought it was his, but I guess not.

It is from Matt Might, here.

Matt Might, a professor in Computer Science at the University of Utah, created The Illustrated Guide to a Ph.D. to explain what a Ph.D. is to new and aspiring graduate students.
