General Information

Welcome to the ACM@LSU Wiki page. ACM is The Association for Computing Machinery Student Chapter based at Louisiana State University, and we are advocates for Computer Science and the students who study it in LSU's Department of Computer Science. ACM@LSU is a student run organization that exists to serve students, faculty, and the community by providing educational, social, and personal development opportunities for all computer enthusiasts. ACM@LSU seeks to augment the development of future computer scientists and professionals by offering networking opportunities and access to the resources of one of the largest and most recognized student organizations in the world. ACM@LSU strives to be a diverse group of students with computer related interests and to be the computer science group at LSU and in Baton Rouge. Membership is open to both undergraduate and graduate students, and in fact our success is tied directly to the active involvement of both groups of students.

Tutoring Information

Main article: Tutoring

ACM endeavors to be a resource for all LSU Computer Science students. We hold regular "office hours" where students are encouraged to drop by to work in group under the supervision of a tutor. We also have special sessions in the days leading up to an assignment due dates. We are also working with the department faculty to provide solutions to assignments, tests, and quizzes.
