Tell me about yourself.
I am a 4th year Computer Science student doing a specialization in Graphics, Gaming and Media. I joined the CS Society in my 2nd year at Dal. I like playing the guitar and soccer. I also play pretty much all video games and enjoy watching movies and tv shows.

Why did you choose Computer Science?
I chose Computer Science because it was a very employable field, it also had the gaming specialization which I was really interested and an actual game development class.

What does your society do?
CSS is a society that represents the undergrads in Computer Science. We host many events to keep students busy and get everyone interacting with each other. We try to make their lives a little bit better and easier by representing their needs.

Why did you join this society?
I made friends that were already in the society and they convinced me that I should join.聽

What made you want to become President of the society?
Most of the exec left the council so I decided to take it upon myself to take over presidency so the society could continue in the way it has been.

What do you like most about your degree?
I find that there are a lot of interesting topics in Computer Science, I started programming in high school and found that I really enjoyed working with computers. I also enjoyed being able to work towards the goal of being a game developer in the future.

Tell me about the events that聽 the society hold.
Snowball - Main Event

Snowball is a dinner gala and dance that students can go to at the end of CS week and have a good time. There are also awards at the gala for students and staff as well as a Keynote by Dr. Nur
