Club Updates
[edit]- Welcome back to campus, Buckeyes! We hope you had a great winter break and a happy New Year's Eve.
- We have several great events planned for this semester, including a Wikipedia birthday party next week, a Women in Computing Edit-a-thon (held in collaboration with OSU's ACM-W chapter), and the annual Art+Feminism Edit-a-thon. We hope you can join us for these events! More details will become available the closer we get to each event.
- For this semester, we'll be using the new Outreach Dashboard to keep track of all members' edits and contributions. Check out the Spring 2017 Program, and feel free to add yourselves to the list of editors if you're not already on the list.
