The GIRLsmarts workshop is a one-day computer science workshop for girls in grade 6. The workshops have been very successful in the past few years mainly due to the help of enthusiastic volunteers. We are looking to continue this tradition and we need your help. With the rewards of a volunteer dinner, cool thank you gifts and the knowledge that you have helped inspire interest in computer science for young women, this is definitely a great and fun way to pad those résumés.
The workshops are planned to happen on January 31st and February 7th of next year.
We’re looking for enthusiastic and responsible people to join us and help with GIRLsmarts. We have different positions available including activity facilitators and group leaders. All the activities are already planned so the amount of work required for volunteers is quite minimal. For more details on the program and on the volunteers positions offered please refer to the website: http://www.jadeproject.ca/girlsmarts/index.html. If you are interested in volunteering for GIRLsmarts, please email the following information to girlsm[email protected] with the subject line: Volunteer. We will get back to you with a gratitude themed email as well a specific date for our first volunteer meeting which will likely be in December.
Next week, on Friday afternoon, SUS is holding a Meet the Dean (of Science) session.
If you have any issues, concerns, or inquiries for the Dean of Science, this is your chance to make your voice heard! If you think of anything feel free to e-mail [email protected] and we
hope to see you out there next week.
Come and enjoy a lazy Friday afternoon with us over burgers, chips, and pop! Your CSSS Executives will be grilling tasty food and it’s yours to enjoy for a very nominal price.

Also, if you’re there between 12 and 1, be sure to say hi to our Research In Motion Campus Ambassador, Ryan Daley. He’ll have free ice cream!
