Pi Fest
Jeffery Russell (@jrtechs) - 25 October 2019
Hey Ritluggers,
This week we will be exploring all the wonderful things you can do with Raspberry Pis. We will go over some Pi 101 things and then dive into demoing some of our favorite Raspberry pi projects. If anyone in the club has a Raspberry Pi, feel free to bring it with you to the club this Friday.
Tomorrow (Thursday) there will be a “pizza social” during FOSS hours where there will be a meet-and-greet with other FOSS students, faculty, and alums. Everyone is welcome to come: FOSS hours are held weekly on Thursdays from 5-7 PM in Magic Center 3190. This weekend, FOSS@Magic is hosting The Future Is Open conference which is the first-ever open-source conference at RIT. RITlug will be helping host three events/talks, there will be more free pizza, and there are dozens of guest speakers coming. This event is all day Saturday (10 AM-5 PM) in the MAGIC center – we got the entire building reserved for this event! RSVP to the event using this link.
We will be ordering t-shirts within the next few weeks. If you are interested in buying a RITlug t-shirt, fill out this form. The T-shirts will be $20.
GCCIS is hosting a Halloween costume next week. RITlug will have a table there where we will be advertising our club, so feel free to swing by our table and check out some of the other cool GCCIS clubs. Rumor has it that the winner of this year’s costume competition will be getting a Raspberry Pi, so be sure to come with your best costumes.
I hope to see you all at this week’s meeting!
