UPDATE: The park is in good condition and the rain has left, so Big Event will stay at Eastwoods Park as planned. See you there.
Open to all CS majors, ACM members, professors, and staff members!
Big Event is our biannual barbecue and social, chock full of food, games, prizes, and great people. Take some time off and mingle with friends and professors while enjoying catering from Rudy's Barbecue. Big Event takes place in Eastwoods Park, just north of campus, and generally lasts about three hours. If you can't stay the whole time, no worries.
Eastwoods Park is located on Harris Park Ave. and Dean Keeton, a short walk from campus. Limited parking is usually available along Harris Park Avenue, adjacent to Eastwoods.

Join ACM for a day of fantastic merriment - kayaking, ultimate frisbee, kite-flying, tag football, and pretty much anything you want to do.
Bring $10 and a driver's license if you want to go kayaking, and food if you're going to be hungry.
We'll probably go eat afterwards, but the location depends on the whim of the crowd.
Come join us at the first installment of the ACM 101 Lecture Series! Dr. Alvisi will be giving a casual, intro-level talk on distributed computing, complete with cookies and drinks. Next Fall, he will be teaching the undergraduate course on the same subject, so this is a great opportunity to see if it interests you.

It's time for everyone's favorite pastime on ice... BROOMBALL! If you are unfamiliar with broomball, try to think of it as hockey except:
1) instead of skates... shoes
2) instead of a puck... a dodge ball
3) instead of a hockey stick... a stick with a plastic end
4) instead of pain... fun!
The cap on the event is set at 30 people and everyone needs to bring $10 cash to cover the cost. Sign up here to guarantee yourself a spot (click "Read More" if you're on the front page), or cross your fingers and just show up. We will meet at the office and arrange rides at 10pm.
