[Cs-club-l] Meeting this Tuesday

Hi everyone!

I'm sorry for the late notice but we will be having a meeting Tuesday, Jan. 29th at noon in Salazar 2001.

We will be talking about upcoming events and the WICS trip to The Computer History Museum on February 15th.

Hope to see you there!

[Cs-club-l] Welcome back!

Hi everyone,

I hope you all had a wonderful break and are having a great start to the semester!

We were supposed to have our first meeting today but we had problems getting a room. I'm sure you all heard about the disaster in the Darwin basement.

We were planning on having LAN Parties this semester but that probably won't happen until we can get the basement back. We will possibly have a Board Game Night or similar event in place of the first LAN Party. We may also have companies come in to talk to us about jobs and their products.

T-shirts are being worked on and we will definitely have them this semester.

WICS is planning trips to Vertigo, mFoundry and The Computer History Museum for anyone that is interested.

Our next meeting is February 5th at 12pm. There will be an email sent out as soon as we know what room we will be using.

Thanks and hope to see you at the meeting!
