Learn to Program Your Own GameBoy Console Event:
On Thursday March 1st, Computer Science Society invited Mr. Ted Kotz, a Senior Engineer at Harris, to teach our members how to program a virtual game onto a miniature gaming system called Arduboy. Club members did this through a computer software called Arduino. Computer Science Society Eboard members distributed Arduboy's to the club members for their use during the event (and gave them the opportunity to sign out an Arduboy for personal use at the end of the meeting). Mr. Kotz displayed a game he created himself called Froggy Toad (similar to iPhone App Crossy Road) and proceeded to introduce Arduboy programming in C++ to the Computer Science Society.

For more information on Arduboy programming or signing out an Arduboy from CSS please contact: [email protected]

Build Your Own Website Workshop:
On Thursday March 15th, Computer Science Society hosted a web design event where Walt Disney Software Engineer Zakiya Sims came to Fordham University and explained HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to the club. Zakiya started off by introducing HTML, the basic foundation of creating a website. Then moved on to CSS, mostly used for the color, design, and aesthetic of a website. Finally, she talked about JavaScript and JQuery, which can be used to make your website more interactive and in-depth. After Zakiya finished teaching, she gave our club members the opportunity to start creating their own website, while she walked around and gave assistance and ideas to anyone who needed it.

If you are interested in creating a new website for Computer Science Society, please email [email protected] for more details!! There will be prizes (:

CSS GOOGLE TOUR!!!

On Friday March 16th, Computer Science Society went on a tour of Google's New York Headquarters. Brendan Collins, a fellow Googler who is involved with University Programs for the company, guided our club through Google's Office, describing the atmosphere as "similar to a high-school". First, we saw the emergency stairwell that was once a huge elevator shaft for trucks to drive into in order to deliver product. Some of the original architecture from this elevator shaft was kept in tact. Next, we took the elevator to the 14th floor of the building. We had the opportunity to see Googler's in their work environment (which consisted of comfy chairs, many windows, and a relaxed environment), as well as tour the famous Cafeteria, Panorama, that was unfortunately not serving food at that time. From the cafeteria, we walked to the outside terrace and took in the extraordinary view that Google has from their office. Finally, we took the elevator to the fourth floor and met with Fordham alumni Alex Golec and James Apfal who now work for Google. Alex Golec is a Tech Leader at Google and was previously a Software Engineer at Google-he has been with the company for over 5 years. James Apfal is a Software Engineer at Google and is approaching his first year with the company. We talked with Alex and James for over an hour, discussing their experiences at Google, how they got to where they are today, and what it takes to work at Google. The experience was overall intriguing, exciting, and motivating. CSS was given a taste of the substantial opportunities to come from choosing the field of Computer Science😀
