     <p>
       Join Computer Science Club for Alt-Tab, a lightning tech talk series presented by students. Alt-Tab consists of 10 to 15-minute talks about anything related to tech. They can be about cool new features, a fun project you made or really anything that you are excited about! We will be hosting it virtually this term late March.
