It's that time again... the time to get psyched for another great year!
Women @ the College of Computing has some great events planned this semester. To start, we have three "Welcome Back" events:
1) Thursday, August 23rd we will have a Pool Party in the CRC from 6:00-8:00pm. The CRC has asked us to get a head-count, and to fill out waivers. PLEASE RSVP to ahartenbaum3@gatech.edu if you would like to attend.
2) Join us for delicious Frozen Yogurt at the Yogli Mogli in Tech Square on Monday, August 24th at 6:30pm.
3) Thursday, August 30th, come to the Craft Center in the Student Center from 6:00-8:00pm. We will be painting ceramics.
If you know any female CoC students (especially freshmen) who are interested in joining Women@CC, please let them know about these events! Bring them along and introduce them to the club!
Our regular meetings will begin Thursday, September 6th. They will occur weekly from 8:00-9:00pm in the College of Computing Building room 354.
