CS Ugrads,
As you go through the career fair today, be aware that companies will be handing out invitations to the ACMW-hosted dinner at 6:30. If you receive an invitation from a company, congratulations! You have just won yourself the opportunity to casually talk to several companies at the dinner.
Please only accept the invitation if you are planning to attend the dinner, and be respectful to other students by only taking one invitation. Hope to see many of you tonight!
Thanks,
ACMW

Info on Graduate School Panel – Monday, October 27th, 5-6pm, Gates Commons
Is graduate school in your future?
For many undergrads, graduate school is a bit of a mystery. Students often wonder if it’s the right next step for them and have questions about what it means to go, how to prepare as an undergrad, what the application process is like, and how they will afford tuition (don’t worry, many schools pay!). Whether you are in the process of applying now, or are simply considering graduate school as a possibility later on, don’t miss your opportunity to learn more about what graduate study entails and what you should be doing now to get ready to apply. Professor Luis Ceze and two new CSE graduate students will be our panelists. The graduate advisors will also be there to help answer questions.
Light refreshments will be served (think sandwiches, salads, desserts)

***Please note that this session is geared toward students looking at Ph.D. programs and terminal master’s programs. It is not a session on the new Combined B.S/M.S. 5th year master’s program.
OK, so there’s been a little trouble in the economy recently. Hiring may be reduced at some companies. This gives you even more reason to polish your resume, attend these two career fairs, and meet some recruiters!
A little encouragement from Ed Lazowska: “Our experience is that the students who have strong records and market themselves and are open-minded about a variety of companies continue to do well. The students who expect jobs to fall into their laps from employers desperate for talent do not.” Be one of the prepared students! Read on for fair details. (more…)
Smoothie Day will take place at 3:30 Friday in CSE 303, with smoothies and selected favorites from one of the very best geek-tv shows, The IT Crowd.
ACM needs volunteers to help make the smoothies (particularly those who have volunteered in the past, and can teach others how to make them!). Those who are interested, meet in the ACM Lounge at 2:30. You can even dish yourself up a smoothie, in exchange for volunteering :).
See you tomorrow!
