The History of Python: a talk by Guido van Rossum
help at event – Lecture Series
The Python programming language plays critical roles in not just computer science, but animated films, bioinformatics, and websites. Language visionary Guido van Rossum will weave his tale on how he crafted Python fifteen years ago, and how he continues to maintain it today. Mr. van Rossum will reminisce about the early days and the not-so-early days of his language. (Even the future might be mentioned!) There will be plenty of opportunity for audience interaction. There will also be a dinner with Guido after his talk. Seating is very limited, so please RSVP if you are interested.

Video Game Tournament with CSUA/IEEE/UPE
help at event – Socials
Hear ye!, hear ye!, come join CSUA, IEEE, and UPE this Friday for a bit 'o sport! We'll be pulling out game consoles and games from across the ages for this regular event. Play the games your grandfather (or older siblings) used to play, or lay the smack down against your peers on the PS2 and XBOX. We'll be playing on multiple big screens, what could be better? Bring your own games and systems and challenge someone to a deathmatch. There'll be free pizza, beverages, and an angry mob all waiting to kick your butt in Soul Calibur II, rub your dinky katamari in your face in We Love Katamari, or run you off the road in Burnout 3.
