Had a great interview with professor Sabin who talked about some of the pitfalls other clubs have faced and expressed support for our mission statement and directions we’ve taken so far. She presented the role of faculty advisor as a useful resource for getting speakers, recruiting new members, and getting advice, but with a generally hands-off role until her help is needed. She described her strong qualifications in AI, software engineering, and as an educator. She had a lot of insight into useful technologies and industry trends.
We discussed ideas gleaned from meeting with the WWCS President, including some of the challenges they’ve encountered and activities they do. We decided to reach out to WWCS and other clubs and invite them to join our Discord and unhm-programming-team organization with all the rights/privileges of members to start and join projects.
We discussed an upcoming OSU gaming event on April 16th that we were contacted about, and will be reaching out to find more information because there was some interest.
