Message-ID: <58348.76.98.34.255.1304610415.squirrel@cs.brynmawr.edu> Friends of computer science, Does a team of humanoid robots playing soccer sound interesting to you? Would you be interested in getting a BMC team together to compete next year in Mexico City? We'll have a small, informal, initial exploratory meeting tomorrow, Friday, May 6 at 1pm in the AI and Robotics lab. We'll discuss the possibility of creating a team of Nao humanoid robots to play soccer: http://www.aldebaran-robotics.com/en We'll be looking at computer vision, planning, walking, learning, soccer strategies, and more, over the next year. Hope you can make it, -Doug PS - if you are interested but can't make it, let me know.

You may have seen an email from Alex recently regarding T-shirts. We have a couple updates. If you want a T-shirt, we will need to collect money before putting in the order. Last year, we had several unaccounted for T-shirts, and we don't want to repeat the incident this year. If you would like a T-shirt, please drop off an envelope with your name and $17 to either me or Alex no later than WEDNESDAY, MAY 11 (if you cannot make this date for any reason, please email either me or Alex). Due to the quick turn-around time, it is unlikely that we will have the shirts here before the end of the semester. If you will not be here next semester (graduating, studying abroad, on leave) but still want a shirt, please let us know (and get us your money -- and preferably an address); we will make sure the shirt gets to you. Again, here is the link for the Comp Sci T-shirts: http://www.bluecotton.com/shareload.cgi?id=350806 The shirts are listed at $14.59 each, but we are adding $2 to everyone's price for shipping. In total the shirt will cost about $17. Please drop off your money to: Alex Funk: Erdman 313 or Box C-1334 Marissa Mocenigo: Box C-1009 Thanks!

Message-ID: <030c01cc1564$6f980b50$4ec821f0$@com> Hi everyone, Just a reminder that scholarship applications for the Grace Hopper Celebration are due on May 31 by 11:59 PM. http://gracehopper.org/2011/participate/scholarships/ What is the Grace Hopper Celebration? It is an annual conference for women in computing. Many Bryn Mawr students and faculty have attended in the past and found it to be a very valuable experience! Students are offered the opportunity to interview with companies for internships and full-time jobs at the conference, plus the networking opportunities with graduate students and professional women abound. The conference takes place November 9-12 in Portland. I will be attending for the seventh time, so if you have questions, please ask!
