The 2012-2013 Braindump Orientation will be held on October 5th 2012 at 6:00 PM in the (Location: FAB 2500). If you are interested in seeing what the Braindump is about, come to the Orientation to get the scoop and see if it is something you are ready to commit to.
What is the Braindump?
Eighteen years ago, an intrepid band of hackers banded together to create The Computer Action Team. Through a process known as The Braindump and an environment that rewarded creativity and self-motivation, they honed their skills and helped create an enduring organization that functions as the IT support group for the Maseeh College of Engineering and Computer Science.
It is time to grow yet another generation of system hackers. If you've thought about getting into IT, becoming a sysadmin, geeking out on networking, or simply getting a crash course in understanding what makes computers tick, you should drop by and see what this is all about. We will talk about who we are, what we do, the Braindump, what it takes and The Deal.
Volunteering for the CAT is not a cake walk. You will need:
- Enthusiasm
- Drive
- A willingless to learn (and learn quickly)
- A love for computers
- Good social skills
- Oh, and yes, you should be a PSU student.
Braindump meets every Friday evening at 6pm. If you are serious about learning systems administration, plan to invest about 10 hours a week.
And should you join, we promise to simultaneously expand your mind and eviscerate your social life.
See if you have what it takes...
