Our ALA student chapter, founded in September 1981, has a long history of bringing notable professionals to campus for guest lectures, organizing field trips and professional activities, and coordinating student travel to ALA conferences. All ACM members and nonmembers are welcome to join us. Membership to UIUC ACM-W is open to any genders, races, ages, sexual orientations, physical or mental abilities, ethnicities, and perspectives of the University of Illinois community. Our chapter aims to increase awareness and knowledge about the role of women in tech and their great contributions to science, design, development, construction, languages, management, and applications of modern computing. The Association for Computing Machinery's Council for Women in Computing student chapter at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC ACM-W) was established in October 2019. The benefits include enhancing your leadership and teamwork skills, networking through events, interacting with diverse groups of people, and of course, having fun! ACM-W Chapter Want to make connections, explore your interests, and build new skill sets? Get involved in one or more of the many student and professional organizations available to iSchool students. If you are interested in starting a new group, there are online resources. The diversity and breadth of options are phenomenal. In addition to iSchool sponsored groups, there are over 1800 registered student organizations (RSO) at the University of Illinois. You also get to know yourself better-your strengths, your goals, and your ability to interact in a variety of situations. Student organizations enhance the educational experience, providing opportunities to expand your skills and develop relationships.
