Hello Allen School students!
We are looking for ~5 panelists for an industry panel we are putting on for our transfer seminar. The transfer seminar is for first-quarter transfer students in our major. We focus on community development, internship prep, academic planning, and extracurriculars in the course.
This year we have 45 students in the transfer seminar. Most of them are very eager to learn more about the internship interview process and what the internship experience is like. You must have had an CSE internship to participate on the panel —all internship experiences/perspectives are welcome and appreciated (large companies, small companies, start-ups, etc.)!
Here are the details:

Hello Everyone,
Please join us for a post Grace Hopper discussion in CSE 305 this Wednesday from 4:00-5:00pm.
This event is centered around the broader discussion of diversity and inclusion in the tech field, and all CSE students are encouraged to attend, even if you didn’t get the chance to attend GHC this year. We will talk about our experiences at the conference, use the topics brought up at GHC as guidelines to reflect on some of the amazing accomplishments women have achieved in technology, and more.

Churchill Scholarship Information Session with Executive Director Michael Morse
10/3/18, 4:30pm, MGH 136
RSVP to attend at https://expo.uw.edu/expo/rsvp/
The Churchill Foundation is offering an information session for UW students interested in spending a year at Cambridge. Freshman, Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors in STEM majors are encouraged to join us on Wednesday, Oct. 3 at 4:30pm in MGH 136 for an informational session with Dr. Michael Morse, Executive Director of the Churchill Foundation. Dr. Morse will share information about the Churchill Scholarships at the University of Cambridge, which fund US students for a year of Master’s study and research in STEM fields.
UW’s application process for this program opens each spring, so learning about the program now will give you a good head start on the next application cycle. Eligible students must be: US citizens who are seniors or those who have graduated within the past 12 months, and must gain admission to Cambridge through the normal admission process (note: GPA of 3.7 or above is recommended for this scholarship).
Happy fall quarter!
WHY TUTOR?
Tutoring is a great way to work on your communication skills, support students interested in exploring CSE, and get experience on your resume. Additionally, it is a low commitment way to determine if a teaching assistant position in the future is a good fit for you or to keep up with your current tutoring skills. This is a volunteer position but tutors who meet with their group every week during the quarter will get CSE swag!
TUTORING DETAILS
Tutors meet once/week with a student, covering CS concepts from either CSE 142 or CSE 143. No prior tutoring experience necessary (this is an opportunity for students in the course to get extra help in addition to resources offered by the instructor and teaching assistants). The commitment is one hour/week for one quarter plus a mandatory one hour tutoring training for all new tutors = a total commitment of 10 – 15 hours total.
REQUIREMENTS
Your knowledge of the material (you must have completed and received a 3.5+ in the course you would like to tutor for) and your willingness to help!
INTERESTED?
Please send me (cdolese@cs.washington.edu) a brief summary (one to two paragraphs) about why you are interested in tutoring, the experiences that you have had that would make you a good tutor, and your time commitments this quarter (course schedule and other commitments outside of academics). Additionally, please let me know if you would prefer to tutor for CSE 142 or CSE 143 (or no preference).
Due to the high level of interest in tutoring the 14X series in the past, the summary will be due on this upcoming Monday, October 1st at 8:00AM. If you submit a summary, you are stating that you have the time to commit one hour per week to your student for the entire quarter. I will get back to students with a decision early next week.
Have a nice weekend,
Chloe
