Outside the classroom, several activities help create a sense of community
among computing students and faculty.
-
The department organizes a fall and spring picnic, often held in
cooperation with the Department of Mathematics and Statistics.
-
Faculty and students get together informally for
lunch at noon on Fridays.
-
Most weeks, students and faculty meet for our Thursday Extras
lecture series,
with refreshments and conversation before a talk by a student, faculty
member, or visitor.
