Again our lovely <a href="/docs/constitution.html">constitution</a> (it
|
|
really <i>is</i> quite a read, see for yourself!) answers this
|
|
question. In short, we exist to promote knowledge of and interest
|
|
in computer science as well as allowing those interested in
|
|
computer science to talk to each other. We are also a proud
|
|
<a href="http://www.acm.org/chapters/stu/">ACM student
|
|
chapter</a>. The <a href="http://www.acm.org/">Association of
|
|
Computing Machinery (ACM)</a> is the world's first society in
|
|
computing and brings together many students and professionals from
|
|
all over the world with an interest in computing. We have an <a
|
|
href="/office/">office</a> where members get together, a
|
|
<a href="/office/books.html">library</a> of computer science books
|
|
available to our members, computer accounts on our various
|
|
machines and much more. Frequently we host <a
|
|
href="/events/">events</a> related to computing, including talks,
|
|
tutorials and demonstrations.

If you are (or have been) a student, faculty or staff at the
|
|
<a href="http://www.uwaterloo.ca/">University of Waterloo</a>, you
|
|
can become a full member of the CSC. Otherwise, you can become an
|
|
affiliate member, meaning you can't vote or hold executive
|
|
office. Membership costs a mere $2 (Canadian) a term at the time of
|
|
this writing, but may change in the future.
