CURSOR Week 2005
For more than two decades, the UP Association of Computer Science Majors (UP CURSOR) has served as the only organization in the University that is solely dedicated to the development and growth of the Department of Computer Science and its students. Each year, UP CURSOR holds a weeklong celebration of the organization’s founding called CURSOR Week.
This year marks CURSOR’s 22nd year, and we celebrate it with projects that are bigger, bolder than ever before. So mark your calendars, because from August 26 – September 22, 2005, we will give you the following scintillating activities:
CURSOR Week Opening Ceromonies and Film Showing
Join us on August 26, Friday, as we officially open the week in the Beta Epsilon AVR. Afterwards, we will hold a short talk and film showing for the benefit of the students of the College of Engineering.
CURSOR Sportsfest
On August 27, fresh from the opening, we will hold a day of sports and fun aimed to strengthen the unity among UP CURSOR members, applicants, and alumni! Lunch is free, so we invite the whole sexy family to come.
The @rte Movement [http://arte.upcursor.org]
Art and Technology have always had a rift during the long course of history. The gap is slowly being closed, step by step, and here we offer a further leap. This is The @rte Movement: Art & Technology United.
This event is spearheaded by @rte Attack!, a Digital Art and Digital Photography contest for college students. The entries of the finalists of the competition will be displayed during the week on 2nd floor lobby of the College of Engineering, from August 29 – September 2.
Aside from the contest, there will be a number of talks on Digital Art during August 29-30, as well as booths by companies in the Digital Art and IT industry from August 29 to September 2, 2005.
Parties interested in the talks may register at the website. The talks are free of charge, but you may avail of a certificate if you wish for Php 75.
For any inquiries, you may contact us at arte.attack@gmail.com or visit the website and leave a note there.
Gawad Kalinga
In its undying commitment to serve the less fortunate, UP CURSOR, in cooperation with UPSILON, will sponsor an outreach program aimed at helping building houses for the less fortunate through its participation in Gawad Kalinga, to be held on August 31, 2005.
Junior Programmers’ Conference
True programmers need not be separated by school nor by age. UP CURSOR’s Junior Programming Conference bridges these invisible gaps between the youth’s top coders and instead aims to unleash their true prowess at their calling.
The JPC helps them achieve this through a seminar during the morning of September 1, 2005, followed by a programming competition for high school students in the afternoon.
Veering away from the typical, expect the JPC to be not just your ordinary programming contest.
Double Vision: The CURSOR Party
UP CURSOR as an organization has always taken great pride in both its scholastic and extracurricular achievements. CURSOR members both hold and participate in academic, programming, artistic, and sporting competitions, and even hold several socially relevant activities.
For this reason, we hold Double Vision: the CURSOR Party as the culminating event of CURSOR Week, in order to represent UP CURSOR’s dual vision of both academic excellence and social service. The event will serve as a venue for members and non-members to unwind and make sure that CURSOr’s 22nd year celebration ends with a bang.
The night features many and varied performers and bands, and is open not only to members and alumni but also to anyone who wishes to share in the revelry. See you on the night of September 2!
