Hey everyone! 👋🏽
UPDATE----
Just a quick update. Unfortunately, our fourth talk in the UB ACM series "Hack With Alan" on April 15th, 2021 , i.e. this Thursday has been canceled.
Our guest speaker and professor Alan met with a serious injury this week and he won't be able to host the workshop. 🙁
Let's all pray and send our well-wishes to Alan Hunt. Get well soon, Alan! 🙏🏽❤️

We will try to host a workshop this week so y'all can still learn new things, as promised and we'll keep you updated on it. It might not be cybersecurity but it'll def be something cool!

Hey everyone!

This coming Monday (11/23) at 7pm, ACM will be hosting two guests from the Intercultural and Diversity Center for a diversity and allyship talk/workshop. ✌🏽

This is the same program which was offered for CSE TAs last month, but this time it is available to all UB ACM members.
We highly recommend you all to attend it and learn more about what diversity, inclusion, allyship and all these scary-sounding-but-pretty-cool terms are and learn how we can make a better, safe and happy world for each and every one of us!!
