15-128 meets Tuesday from 3:00 p.m. to 4:20 in
7500 Wean Hall.
During this time the freshman cs majors meet
and hear from different members of the cs
community. The speakers talk about their
research in cs, past events, and future
trends. The idea is to expand the students'
concepts of what is available to them as
students within the School of Computer
Science.
