\section*{Membership:}
|
||||
|
||||
Membership in the Computer Science Club is open to anyone willing to join,
|
||||
though voting membership is only open to undergraduate math students at the
|
||||
University of Waterloo. Membership costs \$2 per term and may be paid in
|
||||
advance. What does membership get you? Thats what this flyer is about,
|
||||
but if you want the quick summary: your fee supports club events that are
|
||||
open to all, and grants you access to club services (our computing environment,
|
||||
office, cheap pop, library). It also opens up volunteer positions in the club, if you'd
|
||||
prefer to do more than just pay to support our activites.
|
||||
|
||||
\section*{Events:}
|
||||
|
||||
During any given term the CSC will run numerous events related to Computer
|
||||
Science or being a Club, or sometimes both. These events run the gamut from
|
||||
socials, the most infamous being the end of term dinner, CTRL-D; through
|
||||
tutorials and workshops, including an introduction to the CS student's best
|
||||
friend: the UNIX environmen; to talks from professors and Computer Science
|
||||
luminaries. Some talks from the past include Bill Gates in 1989 (before he
|
||||
was famous), John McCarthy in 1994 (he created LISP), and more recently,
|
||||
Joel Spolsky of Fog Creek Software, Bjarne Stroustrup, and Richard Stallman.
|
||||
We have also toured the labs of the Institute for Quantum Computing after
|
||||
enjoying a talk from the director Raymond Laflamme on the future of quantum
|
||||
computation and the current state of programming available to quantum
|
||||
computers.

\section*{Services:}
|
||||
|
||||
The Computer Science Club provides several services to its members, including
|
||||
a computing environment with all the toppings, a library of literature, and an
|
||||
office to use it all in.
|
||||
|
||||
\subsection*{Computing Environment:}
|
||||
|
||||
The main benefit of becoming a CSC member is to get access to our various
|
||||
machines. We offer a large range of hardware, including Alpha, MIPS,
|
||||
UltraSPARC, i386, and AMD64. Our primary development machine, taurine, is a
|
||||
dual AMD Opteron (4 cores in total) with 8 GiB of RAM. Most of our machines
|
||||
are connected via gigabit ethernet. We offer 4 GB of disk quota that is
|
||||
accessible across all of our machines. Our wiki contains a full machine list.
|
||||
|
||||
Members also receive a username@csclub.uwaterloo.ca email address. Mailboxes
|
||||
are considered as part of your disk quota, so your mailbox may grow up to the
|
||||
amount of disk quota you have. Attachments of any file size or type may be
|
||||
sent. Our mail server runs a POP3, IMAP, and SMTP server with SSL/TLS
|
||||
enabled. You can also access your mail via a secure web interface.
|
||||
|
||||
Many of members take advantage of our web hosting service. Our web server
|
||||
runs on Apache, and has PHP, Python, and Perl modules installed. We also
|
||||
have MySQL and PostgreSQL databases available upon request.
|
||||
|
||||
\subsection*{Library:}
|
||||
|
||||
The CSC maintains an extensive collection of Computer Science related
|
||||
books. The library can be browsed online by going the library section of our
|
||||
website, or in person in the office. CSC members are free to borrow most of
|
||||
the books in the library, with the exception of certain signed copies and
|
||||
course textbooks.
|
||||
|
||||
\subsection*{Office:}
|
||||
|
||||
The CS Club office can be found in MC3036, it houses the library, a great
|
||||
place to socialize with the restof the membership, cheap pop, and of course,
|
||||
computers; where you are encouraged to eat and surf. It is open most any hour
|
||||
of the night and day and populated by helpful and friendly office staff.

\section*{Volunteer:}
|
||||
|
||||
If you would like to get involved with the club there are various ways to
|
||||
volunteer your time, beyond running for an executive position. If you'd like
|
||||
to sign up the info below will tell you who to e-mail, or you can just ask
|
||||
in person in the office.
|
||||
|
||||
\subsection*{Program Committee}
|
||||
|
||||
Headed by the Vice President the Program Committee organizes club events and
|
||||
meetings, works with speakers and presenters to make sure they're happy, gets
|
||||
the venues and equipment ready, and everything else involved in running talks.
|
||||
If you'd like to get involved contact the Vice President at
|
||||
veep@csclub.uwaterloo.ca
|
||||
|
||||
\subsection*{Systems Committee}
|
||||
|
||||
If system administration is more your passion, and you would like to help run
|
||||
the CSC's systems contact the System Administrator at
|
||||
sysadmin@csclub.uwaterloo.ca and join the Systems Comittee. The volunteers
|
||||
help keep our linux computing environment up, under the Administrator's
|
||||
direction.
|
||||
|
||||
\subsection*{Others}
|
||||
|
||||
In addition to our two large committees there are several other ways to be
|
||||
involved, talk to the executive about one of the appointed positions:
|
||||
librarian, office manager, webmaster, or ask the office manager about joining
|
||||
the office staff. In addition to these named positions we can always use a
|
||||
helping hand, so e-mail exec@csclub.uwaterloo.ca and tell us what you can do.
