Computer Science Club Interview
Jessica:
Hello, How was your summer? I would like to congratulate you on becoming the 2023-2024 Computer Science Club (CSC) President.
Gideon:
Thank you, Jessica. I had a great learning experience working at an internship role this summer. And I am excited for this new academic year, especially with what we have planned for the club. How was your summer, Jessica?
Jessica:
My summer was excellent! I look forward to the academic year and another amazing year with the club. What are some highlights of the club you would like to share about the club?
Gideon:
My top highlight would be the 2023 Game Jam during the Winter term’s reading week. I had the privilege to help organize the online event, and I was amazed at the games’ quality and the participants’ creativity. And I liked how we had several opportunities for students to connect throughout the year, such as the Fall Kickoff and PI(e) Day.
Jessica:
I agree. My favourite activities last year would be PI(e) Day Celebrations and weekly ♦️ Games ♠️ Nights. Are there any activities this upcoming term?
Gideon:
We have several activities lined up for this Fall term. First is our annual Fall Kickoff, where the club will have a social get-together with food, music, and games for club members to connect, socialize, and have fun. We’ll also be resuming our weekly Game Nights and coding competitions. We plan on hosting several workshops to promote peer learning within the club.
Jessica:
These activities sound amazing! I am excited to participate and meet other students interested in Computer Science, Games, and Tech. How do I get involved? Are there any requirements for getting involved?
Gideon:
There are no restrictions, so long as you have a passion for computer science and tech. Everyone is welcome to join and participate in our events.
Jessica:
Where Can I find more information about the club?
Gideon:
I’d say to watch the club’s Discord for announcements and other news, as it’s our primary way of getting information out to students. We also have a website at https://brockcsc.ca for more information about the club.
Jessica:
Is there a club room or a location where students can meet?
Gideon:
I’m glad you asked! Our club room (MCJ332) is opposite the computer science help desk. We have snacks, drinks, board games, video games, and card games. Everyone is welcome to drop by and hang out between classes or whenever.
Jessica:
How can I stay in touch for future events and activities or meet new peers?
Gideon:
The best way to keep in touch is to watch our club’s Discord announcements. Every activity we host will be posted there, including the Fall Kickoff we’ll host in a few weeks. The Fall Kickoff is a great opportunity for new and returning students to connect, reconnect, and meet new faces. I’d encourage everyone to join us, so watch for more news on Discord.
