The School of Computer Science is holding an information session on upper
year courses this Monday. Professors will describe the third and fourth
year courses (there
are many!) to assist you in your choices.
You should probably take CS 452! Choo choo!
Still in first year? Getting an idea of what you will want to take ahead
of time will still be useful!
Refreshments provided! ;)

Hello CSC members!
The Computer Science Club along with the Physics Undergraduate Club
will be hosting "Feynman Nights". We will be showing recordings of
lectures that the physicist Richard Feynman gave at Cornell in 1964.
They can be viewed online at the following address: http://research.microsoft.com/apps/tools/tuva/
Relevant info:
- There will be snacks/refreshments (this week will be popcorn, chips,
pop... maybe pizza, who knows! We will take suggestions for future
dates if people give them.)
- Admission is free (of course)!
- Open to everyone, and accessible to everyone! (They are lectures
accessible to the general public.)
- There will be 7 happening weekly on Wednesdays at 7-8PM. You don't
have to attend them all! (but you should!)
- PHYS 150. That is the physics building, in one of the theatre rooms.
NOTE:
Yes, the first one is this Wednesday. i.e. TODAY.
It is ok to come to the second if you miss the first. Bonus marks
(there are no marks) for coming to the first, though.
Try to come early to get a seat! Bring your friends, meet new people
and generally be awesome.

Hello, the CSC is hosting UNIX 103 on 2009-10-08 at 4:30 PM in MC3003.
In this long-awaited third installment of the popular Unix Tutorials the
friendly experts of the CSC will teach you the simple art of version control.
You will learn the purpose and use of two different Version Control Systems
(git and subversion). This tutorial will advise you in the discipline of
managing the source code of your projects and enable you to quickly learn new
Version Control Systems in the work place -- a skill that is much sought after
by employers.
Hope to see you there.
