This was a triumph! I’m making a note here: huge success! We had a great turnout. Upwards of 60 people attended ACM’s first meeting of the semester.
The meeting opened with a brief description of the club, an introduction to the new ACM Officers, and information on ways to contact us. We talked about upcoming events like CES 2011, and asked members to suggest their own ideas. After a quick discussion about tutoring, we surprised Ash with a birthday cake (accompanied by the song “Still Alive”). The cake was not a lie. Happy Birthday, Ash! Finally, Dr. Kwai-Ting Lan and former officer Dale Fletter concluded the business part of the meeting by endorsing ACM, calling it a great resource for Computer Science students.
With such a crowded room, the free pizza quickly disappeared. There was enough for everyone, but just barely. This was followed by a video game tournament. On one side of the room: Super Smash Brothers on the Wii. On the other side: a PlayStation 3 running Street Fighter. After roughly two hours of gaming, two people emerged victorious: Billy Saetern kicked butt at Street Fighter, and Julien Tran was crowned champion of Super Smash Brothers. Both were awarded free one-year memberships to ACM and fancy official club shirts. Congratulations, guys!
It was a great first meeting, and we hope everyone continues to join us in the future. If you couldn’t make it, that’s OK. Meetings are streamed live via Ustream and can be downloaded via our podcast. Thanks for joining us!
