Debriefing: BCOE Dodgeball Tournament

  • Thanks to everyone who signed up and represented ACM
  • We didn't win this time so we need to adjust our head tracking algorithms!
  • Also, feel free to organize sporting events with your ACM friends. That's what those jerseys are for.

Web Workshop Updates

  • In progress, starting beginning of next quarter
  • If you signed up, expect a bunch of emails soon and if you haven't signed up, please do
  • Thinking about structure, frequency, content
  • Ideally, I'd like it to be:
    • Twice a week
    • Hour long periods. First half is an introduction to new technology. Later half is optional working time to ask me questions and play around
    • Self-paced. All material will be available from start, but I'll cover it on a scheduled basis
    • Recorded for others to look back on later
  • Thoughts?

Lan Party Reminder

  • Our Lan Party will be this Friday, March 8th, from 5pm to some unknown time
  • (Pre-emptive) Thanks to Grant Brady for volunteering to setup the systems
  • You might be asked to move computers or move down to one of the other lab rooms while we do setup. We might start setting up as early as Thursday so be aware.
  • Feel free to bring your own laptop with all of your cool Steam Games
  • Games provided will be (tentatively) L4D2 and TF2
  • Food will be provided. IEEE will provide Energy Drinks.

T-Shirt Designs Due Tonight

  • If you have a design for the new ACM T-Shirt, please submit it by tonight before midnight
  • We will email a poll to everyone about the designs and ask members to vote on them


New Officer Elections

  • At either or next or next-next general meeting, we want to hold Officer Elections
  • Officers that must be replaced:
    • Chair
    • Vice-Chair
    • Membership Coordinator
  • All positions are up for grab, so if you're interested, you need to let us know RIGHT NOW
  • This is to make the transition for new officers easy and to hopefully guarantee people who care take over ACM
  • If you are interested in any position, please let us know via email or posting on our facebook page

Volunteers needed for Lower-Division CS Course Tutoring

  • We haven't heard a lot of feedback from the lower division classes, but we're likely doing tutoring sessions for CS 10/12/14/61/120A this quarter
  • If you want to help hold a tutoring session, please let us know
  • If you want us to hold a tutoring session for your class, let both us and your professor know so we can set it up

Position Available for Online CS Course Assistant

  • Professors Linard and Miller are currently looking for assistants to help them with tasks related to the online CS course they'll be hosting next quarter
  • You don't need anything but a CS10/2 level experience so this is a great position for beginners
  • If you are interested, please email blinard@cs.ucr.edu for more information
