On page 1 of the daily planner, our email addresses are listed incorrectly. Please observe the following corrections:

All email addresses should use the domain, "csss.cs.ubc.ca" instead of "csss.ubc.ca". For example, it is not "[email protected]" but "[email protected]".

Peer Tutoring!

Categories: Services

Wanna be a tutor?

Help solidify your own knowledge of the material, improve communication skills, gain volunteer experience, and help out a fellow student! Don't be afraid if you think you won't be able to answer a question. The student you are helping does not expect you to know everything! You can always go to the Learning Centre and get additional help from a TA.

Need a tutor?

Get help with a difficult course! If that's not reason enough (!!!) you'll get to meet another student who can probably give you advice on other CS related things, eg. courses to take, great profs, etc. Remember though that they are a student like you so don't expect them to know everything!

If you'd like to participate, here's how to do it:

  1. Go to www.csss.cs.ubc.ca
  2. Create an account on the CSSS website or login with an existing account.
  3. Click 'my account' on the side bar
  4. Go to the 'edit' tab
  5. Click 'UBC'
  6. Halfway down the page you can select whether you would like to request the help of a volunteer tutor, or you would like to volunteer as a tutor.
  7. Enter the courses (or programming languages) you want help with, or you want to tutor in.

(Email webmaster[at]csss.cs.ubc.ca if you have any trouble.)

We'll match you up and then let you go from there! We'll also have fun informal social sessions for participants.

The Big Annual CSSS Clothing Sale of 2008

Categories: Services

Once again, we are selling CS swag again this year! Available for purchase are sweatshirts and t-shirts in a variety of different sizes and colours.

This year, the price of the sweatshirts have been lowered 5 dollars and we now accept Paypal! You do not need a Paypal account to use Paypal - you can just use a credit card too. Of course, if you like, you can still choose to order online and pay in person instead, but you will need to come and track one of us down in order to do so.

Any questions regarding clothing orders should be sent to [email protected].

You can place your orders on theCube online at http://order.thecube.ca (editor’s note: now closed). Please order by March 7th, 2008, so we can get these back to you in time for exams!
