Berkeley Community College STEM Club

Welcome to the Fall '17 semester everybody! Our new meetings will be in room 015, 12:15-1:15 on Mondays. Hope to see you there!

Because of a scheduling conflict with the room, we'll be starting class today at 3 p.m. instead of 2 p.m. (still in room 380 Soda).

Due to the fire at Strawberry Canyon, the entire UC campus will be closed. Because of this we'll be cancelling today's class and instead will have a bit longer of a class tomorrow where I essentially teach the entirety of the two days of web development.

In case anyone missed it, we'll be hosting an extra, 9th, week starting today. It will likely be in the same room as usual (Soda 380) and will go over an introduction to web design (Wednesday), using python to build a website (Thursday), and finally a quick glance at artificial intelligence (Friday). Be sure to keep track of this page in case there are any updates on the room number and availability. We'll most likely have a final update around 1 pm today.

Hello_Friends! We've received a permanent venue for Python Boot camp! Starting this Friday, June 9th, we'll be hosting it at Soda Hall, room 380! Same time 2-6pm! See you then.

Hi all! Due to a large demand to join the boot camp, we'll be moving over from room 212 to room 540AB in Cory Hall for our first and second meetings tomorrow and Thursday. Hope to see you guys there!!
