First Meeting of The Spring

Hey All, We will be having our first meeting Monday February 9th at 5:30pm.  We will be hanging out and discussing some upcoming events and ideas.  We are hoping to get more people involved in leadership and more involvement in the club.  About a week after the job fair we are hoping to help out when Chico tech companies come and do presentations on campus.  We are also thinking of doing monthly programming contests, which the local tech companies might be interested in sponsoring.  Hope to see you at the meeting.

The New Semester

It’s been a while since updating.  We are still alive.  We are having our first meeting Thursday the 11th at 4pm in O’Connell 246.  During the meeting, we hope to get an idea of what sort of things people will want to get out of ACM this semester.  We have a lot of options whether that be taking on a project in the Image Cup or doing career building things like mock interviews or company tours at local companies.  We hope to do social events as well with CSLUG and CGC like LAN parties or Ultimate Frisbee.

We are planning on going to the ACM ICPC programming competition in November so we are putting together a team for that.  The team will hopefully practice once a week on either Monday night or Wednesday night(not sure yet.)  If you are interested be sure to join the google group I created for the competition so we can get this thing organized.  Here is the link.

LAN Party 4/26: Aftermath

We had around 11 people arrive, 7 with their computers. An X-Box 360 was playing Rock Band on the other side of the room. There were no tournaments, but people started up games with Unreal Tournament 2004 and Halo.

Google Summer of Code

Right now Google is accepting applications for their summer of code program in which they will sponsor students to work with an open-source project over the summer. In the program you communicate with a mentor from an open-source project(Here is a list of programs) who will guide you in taking on a programming task for their project. I think Google is giving $4500 to each student who successfully completes the program. It sounds like something fun to do over the summer and it would look good on a resume. The application deadline is March 31st. Go to the Summer of Code page for more info.
