Greetings, Programs.
The Computer Science Club would like to invite you to our last code party
of the term at 7 PM on November 23rd (Friday) in MC Comfy Lounge (MC 3001).
As usual, there will be free food and sugary drinks for your hacking
pleasure. Syed Albiz will be presenting a tutorial on implementing a
ray-tracer in C and Scheme.
Come join us! Bring your friends, bring your laptops.

Hello, membership!
I hope your midterms haven't treated you too badly. For a few breaks
from the grind, we invite you to some upcoming events, hosted by the
CSC, MathSoc, and the PMC.
KW PERLMONGERS TALK: Thursday, Nov. 15, 7:00 - 8:30 pm, DC 1302
---
By Justin Wheeler! In his own words, this talk will cover the virtues
of Perl: CPAN, Moose, CPAN, Catalyst, CPAN, DBIx::Class, CPAN,
TMTOWTDI, and did I mention CPAN?
If you've never used Perl before, don't be scared away by the
jargon---the talk should be accessible to all CS students, and even if
you find it hard to follow, we will be serving pizza!
CSC GOES TO CHARITY BALL: Saturday, Nov. 17, 6:00 pm - 1:00 am, Fed Hall
---
The CSC will be purchasing one or more tables for all n - n (mod 8)
