Starting on Friday, 25 February 2000 the Glendale Community College =
Regional Information Technology Association along with two GCC =
departments will be sponsoring an Open Lab for Social Computing. =20

The lab is only open to GCC faculty, staff, and students.  However, any =
Maricopa county resident can get computer privledges for a semester by =
enrolling in NC-500.  NC-500 costs $24.00.  GCC (and other MCCCD =
colleges) also offer an open-entry open-exit introductory course in UNIX =
that might be interesting to those totally new to the *NIX world.  (See =
GCC's web site at http://www.gc.maricopa.edu)

Planned activities include internet access through a sizable pipe, =
access to MS Office 2000, Leggo robots, and multi-user recreational =
programs. =20

We will also be renovating some old 486 computers.  The hope is to load =
Linux on the machines and build a thin-net LAN.

RITA's web page is at:  http://gecko.gc.maricopa.edu/clubs/rita/

(I hope to update it this weekend.)

Sincerely,


Trent Shipley
RITA President
