[Cs-club-l] Meeting Notes 10/8

Hi Everyone,

I hope that you all had a great weekend. 

Guest Speaker:

Today we had a guest speaker, Kevin Zack, come to the club to talk about getting a school team together for a program called Arliss. The idea is to build a come-back rover that will be launched out of a rocket at 12,000 feet and needs to get back to a GPS location. He is hoping it would be a collaboration between the CS, ES and Physics clubs. The CS Club would be in charge of getting it to come back to a certain GPS location.

Since the club seems to have enough interest, he is going to see if he can get money to put this together.
This is aimed at Sophomores and Juniors since next semester will be the planning stage and then the semester after that will be the building.

If you want more information you can email Kevin:

T-shirts:
Since we don't know if we can put a Seawolf on the shirts due to copyright infringement, we talked about having the shirts just say "Computer Science Club" on the front with "Space Rays will Flip Your Bits" on the back.

Unless someone wants design something to put on the shirt, that's all it will have.
The colors will be blue/navy and white.

AwesomeTimes:

There are limited Mac addresses, so if you paid and don't have the password find Kristi, Matt, Tim or Will and they will give it to you.

WICS Events:

Saturday, November 3 - !(Hack_A_Thon) (Pronounced Not Hack-a-thon) Estimated time is 12pm-8pm but is subject to change.

                                     This will be an all day event where anyone can come with a programming project they would like to work on and try to have something from it by the end of the day. Even if you don't have an idea, come anyway and see 

if you can help someone else with their idea. It will be a great opportunity to work with others, learn something new, and work on something you've always wanted to do.

Hopefully I will see you all at the LAN Party!
