As I’m sure you are all aware, the Coke Closet has been closed this quarter because of the tremendous loss (~$1500) we suffered last quarter. Your two new ACM Treasurers, Ezra Bradford and Alex Philips, will be responsible for deciding how to go forward next year, so please give them your suggestions and feedback. I would like to reiterate that the Coke Closet is not funded by the Department. This loss is being covered by the ACM itself through membership, t-shirts, and events.
That being said, the tab system needs to be resolved and dismantled. Once that is complete, the remaining inventory will be sold on a cash-only basis. This will likely be close to the system adopted for next year, if any system is adopted at all.
If you have a negative tab balance: please pay it off completely and throw away your card. The more money we get back, the more likely the coke closet will exist in some form next year. Also, it’s not nice to steal.
If you have a positive tab balance: please bring your tab to me during one of the following times next week, or find me around. You will be reimbursed. I will be in 002 next week from 10:30-11:30 on MTWF, and 12:30-1:30 WF. If you cannot make one of those times, please either find me around or email me (stasis at cs) and we will set up a meeting time.
Thank you all for your immense support this last year. I wish last quarter had ended better. Please give your new ACM Treasurers your support. They have a hard job ahead of them if they want to try to bring this privilege back for you.

Open to CSE majors
Objective and Background
The objective of this intensive SPM workshop is to provide a truly hands-on experience (3-4 students per instruments) in a classroom laboratory setting involving a variety of SPM techniques applied to nanoscience and nanotechnology aspects related to chemistry, physics and biology.
Since the invention of the scanning tunneling microscope (STM) in 1981 by Gerd Binnig and Heinrich Rohrer (Nobel Prize in Physics 1986) scanning probe microscopy (SPM) techniques have dazzled scientist and engineers in nearly every field from natural sciences to liberal arts, and nucleated the new discipline of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology. The birth of such a highly interdisciplinary field is an attest to the changing times in a world that moves from educating specialists to generalists. The true power of SPM techniques, which assisted in removing boundaries between disciplines, lays in its simplicity to provide access to nanoworld in terms of visualization and manipulation. Hence, it is only perceivable that SPM offers outstanding educational tools for schools.
Hi everyone,
Tomorrow (Friday, 4/17) at noon, we will be holding a general meeting in the ACM lounge. Similar to the previous ones we’ve had, this meeting is open for everyone to stop by and hear about what we have been up to as well as give us suggestions for improvement.
On top of that, we will be giving all of you a chance to meet the line-up of nominees for next year’s officer positions. Stop by even if you only have a few minutes to chat with them!
See you all tomorrow at noon,
Your Friendly ACM Officers
