Hey there,
The CSC newsletter is intended as a way for the exec (and select members
of the events team on the program committee) to communicate CSC events
to people that are interested in participating, among other things. It
is not intended as additional spam for alumni that have just been
maintaining their accounts for years, and have no interest in being
emailed about day-to-day CSC things.
You received an unsubscription email because we tried our best to clear
this mailing list of Alumni. If you're receiving this email, you
specifically requested to be resubscribed (one person, you know who you
are :p), or you meet the criteria below:
- Your first term was f2018 or later; AND
- You are currently a CSC member (in s2022), or were in f2021 or w2022
- Are not marked as Alumni in the UW/CSC LDAP
If you don't want to receive emails in this newsletter, see the info at
the very bottom on how to unsubscribe. Otherwise, our next issue will be
coming soon. Stay tuned!
Please note that future newsletter emails (this one is in plaintext)
will mostly be multi-part MIME with an HTML part. We recommend you use
an mail user-agent (MUA) that supports HTML rendering for the best
experience (i.e. photos!) The CSC webmail at
https://mail.csclub.uwaterloo.ca and most MUAs like Outlook, Gmail,
Thunderbird, Apple Mail, Mailspring, etc. will show the HTML part by
default, unless configured not to.
Best
