REMINDER: GRADUATE SCHOOL INFORMATION SESSION
Conducted by Rich Zemel, our Associate Chair for Graduate Studies.
Wednesday, March 21, 4-6 p.m., Galbraith 119
If you're in third year, now is a good time to find out about graduate school, before you actually have to get started applying.
ACM PROGRAMMING CONTEST RESULTS
Our team tied for 14th! That's way better than it sounds: these are the *worlds*.
This is a ""challenge" aimed at Canadian students interested in entrepreneurship. They suspect, correctly I imagine, that CS students might have a lot to contribute.

This isn't an event: it's a reminder of things you need to know but that you might not. The Career Centre is there to help you.

Job-posting disclaimer: I don't post obviously inappropriate jobs, but I also do not vet postings in the same way as you would expect from the Career Centre. View these postings as roughly equivalent to what you would see in a computing trade magazine's advertisements.
That disclaimer is standard, and not especially related to the jobs in this particular newsletter.
