Lab Cleanup this Friday

  • This Friday we'll be doing a Lab Cleanup starting at 4/5pm

  • Only cleaning ACM lab, not all labs
  • If time permits, maybe we can go chill at The Getaway or get some pizza from Marcello's

Boba Tea House Fundraiser

  • Next week, (2/4 - 2/8 Tentatively), we'll be doing a fundraiser at Boba Tea House on Blaine St.
  • Flyers will be passed out
  • Order drinks/food and mention ACM or give flyer to contribute
  • 10 minute walk away
  • Tell your friends

Change of Meeting Time

  • Most members cannot make it to the General Meetings on Tuesdays of even weeks
  • So we're moving the General Meeting times to be on Mondays of odd weeks from 5-6pm
  • Yes, this means there will be a meeting NEXT WEEK
  • But there'll probably be pizza at that one ;)
  • We'll see how attendance is for that time, since it is hard to gauge who would/n't come given certain times, etc.

E-week

  • If you want to show off your cool side-project or other work for E-Week, submit it to us by the end of next week
  • Also, we're looking for volunteers for E-Week who would like to help us table
  • As of now, we'll be tabling every day of E-Week
  • Tabling happens between 11am - 3pm on each day from 2/18 to 2/23 (Monday is a holiday)
  • If interested in helping out, email our secretary: acm.at.ucr+secretary@gmail.com

HackerRank AI Hackathon

  • YC funded startup, Hackerrank is having a back-to-school  hackathon this Saturday starting at 12.
  • 24 hours to solve 5-6 problems
  • First place gets $2,000, gets to have office hours with Hackerrank and meet with the founder of Box
  • Top 10 get all expenses paid trip to Silicon Valley

Web Workshop Update

  • As of now, there are 13 people who have shown interest in the web workshop
  • Once it reaches 20 people, we'll start coordinating times and details
