2009 Computer Science Education Week - "Computing Is Part Of Everything That Touches Our Lives"

The week of 12/7 is Computer Science Education Week!  The U.S. House of Representatives designated this special week as a way to recognize the transformative role computer science has played and will continue to play in our society, and the need for more support for computer science education in our schools.  The date was chosen in honor of the birthday of Grace Hopper, a pioneer in the field.

Locally, our ACM chapter celebrated by taking a break from final exams and creating a banner for our building - see the attached picture.
