This year, CougarCS is trying to take a more active role as a organization.
We are attempting to hold more events and have a more direct impact on a CS student life at UH.
Such events that we are planning on having include workshops, open forum discussion groups, and LAN Parties.
All of these take immense work, time, and planning and are only worth while if we have large support for these events.
Please show support for CougarCS by attending meetings, voicing your opinion on ideas, and overall voting for options and events.
The more involvement we have as a group, the more support we can give back to our members.

Thank you,
David Mouche
CougarCS President

CougarCS will be participating in one of the Universities longest standing traditions, Frontier Fiesta. We will have a carnival booth in Fiesta City showcasing our many talents and interests. Our carnival booth has been named: "CougARCADE".

Our carnival booth will be open for Friday and Saturday, March 27, 28. We ask all members, alumni, and anyone interested to come out and support us, as well as enjoy the entire festivities of Frontier Fiesta.

We are planning to have several Xbox's setup running games that have been created by our game development classes, as well as all-time favorites such as Halo.

We have other ideas and such that we are going to put into this event. This is our first time ever to participate in an event like this. If you can please come to our meeting on March 24 in the PGH 5th floor CS lab at 5:00 pm. We will be bouncing ideas and last minutes games and stuff to implement in our carnival booth.

We will have a 20 x 40 foot tent, and we will be asking for small donations at the door to help pay for the costs associated with having the event.

Please come out and show your support and your school spirit!

To all CougarCS members: Theme/template Competition

We are having a competition to build a template/theme for the new website that will be going live soon.

Prize: Fryes Gift Card

Requirements:

  • Theme must be designed for Drupal 6. See http://drupal.org/theme-guide/6 for information on how to design a theme for Drupal.
  • The school colors must be part of the theme. You may have other colors as well, but we wish to have the school colors prominently displayed. The school colors are Red ( #cc0000 ) and White ( #FFFFFF ).
  • The main logo of the website must read "CougarCS".
  • The template must look professional. We want the website to look great, but it must also be professional, so try to find a healthy balance.
