Computing Society, GO GO GO!
Thursday, March 20th, 2008Today we finally moved our computing equipment into a room that has been provided for us by the faculty (BIG THANK YOU TO THE FACULTY TEAM, MIKE PHILIPS AND IAN ROBINSON!
). Its in the Surrey Club, just across the road from the Penryhn road campus:
Hopefully we’ll be getting a network connection soon, its been difficult to find a place on the University network where we can have complete autonomy without breaking anything else!
Theres plenty of room, with about five tables and twice as many chairs, as well as about 14 power sockets in the walls!
Its a bit messy in these shots, maybe we should have taken an after shot! The tables are now lined against the walls, and the beastly Dell servers are under the table to the left behind the door. We were initially rejected by the uni marketing team for compsoc.kingston.ac.uk because we might not represent the views of the uni, much like the case of The River who also applied for a subdomain of kingston, but were denied. However, Ian is going to restate our case, given that we are affiliated to the Student Union and so by default only represent our own views anyway!
Progress!
