I believe the professors that helped originate this idea were a group of hacker PhD students from UC Santa Barbara that moved over to Arizona State. Adam Doupe was my professor his first year and an absolutely stellar academic and teacher.

“ You have entered the pwn.college DOJO, an education platform for learners to develop and practice core cybersecurity skills in a hands-on fashion. Entering, you receive your "white belt" , signifying the beginning of your hacker life.”
