We are the WPI Student Chapter of the Association for Computing Machinery, a national professional organization for fields related to Computer Science. We coordinate events for the Computer Science students and faculty and maintain a small set of servers for use by the WPI community. We have weekly general body meetings; our meeting times for A term 2011 are Thursdays at 5:00pm at our lab in the sub-basement of Fuller Labs (room A23). If we ever have too many people in our meetings, we will move up to to either Lower or Upper Perreault Hall. Come introduce yourself!
New year, new events! We'll be continuing the Wednesday ACM-inars this year in Lower FLAUD at 12:00, focusing on tools that'll be useful to underclassmen classes that aren't actually taught in the classes. Our first one will focus on common Linux commands. We'll also be hosting the fall CS Barbeque on Thursday the 16th, and will be announcing a few other A-term events soon!
We'll be continuing in C term to run weekly technical seminars in Lower FLAUD on Wednesdays from 5:00-6:00. This week's will be a whirlwind tour of a few of the more common UNIX tools - grep, sed, awk, make, etc. Come on by!
