First ACM Meeting of the Spring 2009 Semester

We’re starting with a bang, meeting this Thursday, the first week of the semester.  It’s kind of abrupt, but hopefully you’re paying attention and got the message.  It should be fun.  And now a word from our president.

The first ACM meeting will be on Thursday, January 15th at 5:30pm in
SEO 1000.  Dr. Tanya Berger-Wolf will talk about biological
computing.  That is, the use of computer science to describe
biological systems.  This is a rather unusual point of view on
computer science, but, I believe, a revolutionary one.  It’s something
that shows the depth and breadth of application that computer science
has.  I thought this would be a little bit of an inspirational way to
start off the semester.

We’ll also use part of the time to discuss what we’ll be doing this
semester, so I strongly urge the officers and anyone who wants to be
active in the club to attend.

As usual, free pizza will be served along with fine caffeinated
beverages :)   I hope to see everyone there!
Gary Turovsky
ACM President

Remember, this Thursday.  Be there.
