Hello Computing Science Students (yes, that's you!),


Have you ever been:

Too intimidated to approach a professor?

Too scared to come to office hours?

Feeling distanced from your own educators?


On Thursday, March 28th, come to TASC 9204 to meet your mentors and make small talk, or strike up a deeper conversation if that appeals more to you (save the academic questions for office hours though!). This is an opportunity to meet some of your professors and instructors and talk about various topics in a casual, low-stakes, environment and away from all the academic stress! 📚


Light refreshments will also be provided! The event is free, but registration is required ahead of time.


Here are the full details of the event:

Event: Computing Science Faculty Student Mixer

Date and time: Thursday, March 28, 2024, 11:30am - 2:30 pm
Location: TASC 1 9204
RSVP: Please RSVP ahead of time with the following link: http://websurvey.sfu.ca/survey/464853388
