CSE 390P (Problem Solving with Programming) is a one credit course designed to explore applications of programming to problem solving. Each week students will be given a problem (or problems) that should be solved using a combination of critical thinking, problem solving, and skills learned in other CSE courses. There will occasionally be lectures on topics relevant to solving these problems. CSE 390P is about applying your programming skills to solving novel, interesting problems. We will go through the SICP book (https://mitpress.mit.edu/sicp/full-text/book/book.html) together to get a sense of interpretation, languages, more functional programming, and fun!
Prerequisites: CSE 143

Hello!
We would like to invite you to the first ever CSE Student Advisory Council Discussion Forum. This is an opportunity for the CSE community to come together, share their experiences, and brainstorm ideas to make our community better. We hope this discussion forum will create a space for constructive conversations and lead to actionable resolutions.
If that wasn’t enough, we are providing free Chipotle burritos (while supplies last! Come fast!). The meeting is in CSE 403 on Tuesday, November 7th. Doors open at 5:00 pm, event starts at 5:15 pm. The theme for this meeting is: Share Your Fall Quarter Experience. Topics will range from navigating the new school year, managing stress, and seeking internships.
Please RSVP here so we know how much food to order!
Who are we?
The Computer Science and Engineering Student Advisory Council is the collective voice of undergraduate and masters’ students. This advisory council aims to use research-based methods to assess and understand students’ needs and collaborate with faculty and advisers on key issues such as diversity, social responsibility, and student wellness.
If you have any questions, feel free to email Kaitlyn Zhou and Geoffrey Wukelic.

We are getting a lot of questions about when students register. If you are on an internship this quarter and are not registered for fall courses, your registration date probably won’t show up, but you should be able to register on the date listed here: https://www.washington.edu/students/reg/priorwi18.html
If you have a graduation application currently on file, or filed recently, you should be able to register this Friday November 3rd.

Subject: [cs-ugrads] This morning’s circus
To: Staff <cs-staff@cs.washington.edu>, “cs-ugrads@cs.washington.edu” <cs-ugrads@cs.washington.edu>, Researchers <researchers@cs.washington.edu>
This morning we were privileged to host a session on “women in 21st century fields” with Rep. Suzan DelBene (WA) and Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi (CA).
I apologize that there was no broad announcement in advance. By decree from DC, the audience was limited to 50 – a mix of undergraduates, graduate students, faculty, and staff. (And even those in the audience were not aware of who the visitors would be.)
We will post some photos on the weekend.

Hi all,
In case you didn’t know, there is a fridge in the ACM lounge that is open to students to store food! It is going to be cleaned out this Thursday (11/2) evening in preparation for Fall Fest on Friday. You’re always welcome to store food there, but take your stuff home before Thursday. We will throw out food and place containers in the sink or dishwasher.

Hey all!
This is a long email, please read through ’til the end! First, congratulations for making it through career fair week. Now that we’ve made it through, we’d like you remind you of some upcoming events.
Interview Prep: Have some upcoming technical interviews? We’re having an interview prep session Tuesday 10/31, 5:30-6:30pm in CSE 403. We’ll be going over some example interview questions.
Fall Fest: Friday 11/3 5:30pm in the Atrium. This is our annual event and our big social event for the quarter. It’s open to anyone in CSE that does not have significant snack overflow debt (you can pay it off anytime next week before Fall Fest!) There will be food, music, games (and alcohol if you’re 21+) and more importantly a chance to talk to people outside of the context of classes, work, stress, the labs, etc. Come with friends and make new friends there, we’d love to see you!!
Volunteers for Fall Fest: We also need volunteers to help us set up and clean up for Fall Fest. This is a great opportunity to get involved with ACM and get to know some of the officers! Let us know if you’re interested and available using this form.
Research Night: This night is aimed at undergrads looking for research opportunities or just curious about what the labs in CSE are currently up to. There will be introductory lightning talks where a representative from each lab will give an overview of their work, and then the labs will be open for the night and you can go around to the different labs and talk to grad students. This will most likely happen over two separate evenings. The date and time will be finalized soon, but we wanted to let you know that this event is coming!
Social Media: follow us on Instagram at uwacm and we’ll follow you back! We’ll be using this account to give you updates on our events and do spotlights on certain students. Also we have a Snapchat at the same name.
Have a good weekend, go soak up some sun!
