If you are a computer science or computing engineering major, you should consider joining the Council of Computing Majors (CCM). This is a student organization that represents undergraduate CMSC and CMPE majors. Austin Murdock and Amanda Pyryt have revived the CCM and will lead the initial meeting for the year this coming Monday, October 7th from 12-1pm in Admin 101.

If you are interested in speaking with other Computer Science and Computer Engineering majors at UMBC, or interested in learning more about computing please feel free to attend! This year we are also introducing a system to set up study groups for your major.

The initial meeting will include a presentation from a Windows representative about Windows 8.1. This is the first major major update for the Windows 8 operating system and is expected to be released later this month.
