Tom Barclay's presentation on Microsoft Terraserver has been canceled. HOWEVER: Students in the CS Colloquium class are still expected to turn in a paper on the subject.

The next movie night is scheduled for Friday, October 3 at 833 Loadstone Ct in the 'L' section of Rohnert Park. Bring your own food and beverages.

Directions from the SSU campus:

• Head west down East Cotati Avenue
• Turn left on Lancaster Drive at the stop light immediately at the chevron station. If you get to Adrian or Oliver's, you missed it.
• Take a left on Lord's Manor Way at the second stop sign down Lancaster
• Take the second left possible from Lord's Manor into Loadstone Court
• 833 will be on the left.

School is starting again! Oh no! Oh, yes!

Our first meeting will be in Darwin 29 on Tuesday September 2. The agenda will be:

• Everything

We have a lot of things to discuss so this meeting might take a little longer than usual. The schedule says the room will be clear if that happens.

Location:
Magnolia Park in Rohnert Park

Agenda:
Eat, drink, and be merry at the CS Club Potluck at Magnolia Park on Bodway and Middlebrook, a short walk south from the SSU campus. It's a potluck, so everyone please bring something to eat and drink or else you'll just have to be merry. We may have a barbeque if someone brings something that can be barbequed.
The park has tennis courts, lots of parking, and plenty of fields to play in. Jon mentioned having several frisbees in dire need of use. Bring other play material if you have another idea in mind.
The party will probably move into Jon's house when it gets too dark.
This may be your last chance to socialize with our graduating members before they go off into the Real World, so come over and let's have some fun!
