#!SUITSSydney University IT Society

SUITS Hack sessions will continue next semester! It has been great to have a weekly tutorial/discussion forum and the response from you guys has been very positive!

So now we’re looking for more presenters, namely YOU!

The bueaty of SUITS Hack Sessions is that you can literally present on anything (IT/Tech Related) that your passionate about and would like to share that knowledge with other students.

For example this semester we had Programming Theory Tutorials, Multi-Touch Demos, LaTeX demos and more!

How to apply:

1. Think of a subject your passionate about and would like to talk about. You DONT have to a professional but obviously should know something about that area
2. Work out the time; if you would like the full hour (it goes really quick if you presenting on something you know!) or just 30min
3. Email James at jale4381 AT uni dot sydney dot edu dot au

Also stay tuned for videos form this semester. We’re also looking into streaming each hack session live online!

SUITS Exec 2010

At the end of SUITS camp this year, Tim Dawborn and James Constable gave an interesting introductory mini-lecture on Haskell and functional languages in general. I know it’s been a while since then, but I only just had the chance to edit and upload it.

Hello all,
I’m Ben the SUITS Event Coordinator and this semester I’m going to be running this Event Blog.

I think that this blog can become a great accompaniment to the Newsletter (just a little more wordy and a little more personal) and a decent read for all SUITS members.
