NOTE: The time of the CSEE graduate picnic has been changed to 1:30 to 3:30 to avoid overlapping with the UMBC Convocation.

The UMBC ACM Student Chapter and CSEE Department are hosting a Welcome/Welcome Back picnic for all new and returning CSEE graduate students, faculty and staff on Monday, 30 August.  It will be held from 1:30pm to 3:30pm in the atrium of the Engineering and Computer Science (ECS) building.  Food and drinks will be provided.

Please come out on the day before classes and enjoy some food while catching up.

Everyone is also encouraged to also attend Convocation 2010, the formal opening of the academic year at UMBC, from 3:30 to 4:30 pm in the Retriever Activities Center.  President Hrabowski will address the gathering and Wendy Salkind, Presidential Teaching Professor for 2010-13, will make brief remarks.

After Convocation, all faculty, staff and students are invited to yet another free Community Picnic on the UMBC Quad from 4:30 to 7:00pm. The rain location will be the Residence Life Dining Hall.
