It’s been a while.
If anyone has any ideas for activities for the CSSA to do in fall 2012, please send them to the mailing list, cssa@list.uvm.edu. I think it would be really cool if UVM could get some people together for a team to participate in the vermont hackathon; I posted a thread on the UVM subreddit, and there seemed to be some interest. Or anything else! The mailing list doesn’t bite.
