If you’re creative enough in reading the event name, you can have so many ways of saying it. It can be read as “Geeks!� for the stereotype computer science students; “GCs!� for those who are “grade conscious�; or just plainly “Gee! CS!�.
The event was held last September 14, 2005 and was a continuation of the freshman orientation, “WOW! ComSci!�, which was held in June. It served as an academic day for everyone, and in the morning, several events transpired in various parts of Melchor Hall.
The CS 11 Programming Competition was held at the new 5th floor MJEC where the CS freshmen displayed their programming skills.
The CS 21 Quiz Show was held at MH 209 where the CS sophomores tested their wit and knowledge on Computer Organization & Assembly Language.
Lastly, the ACM Turing Webcast was held at MH 215 for the juniors and the seniors. However, the webcast was moved to September 21 because of technical difficulties.
During the afternoon, the closing program for Gee!CS! was held at the Engineering Theatre. The event was started by an opening speech by CS Representative Geomar Lubaton.
He then presided over the launching of the “Be A Mentor, Be A Friend� program. The program aims to monitor the academic performance of CS freshmen. In the presentation, the mentors were introduced to their respective mentees (CS freshies).
It was then followed by a presentation about the CS Network by CS Representative Dino Paolo Lacdan. A dialogue between the students and CS Network representatives was conducted, where questions regarding the network were clarified.
Next was the much anticipated awarding ceremony. The participants of the CS 11 Programming Competition and the CS 21 Quiz Show were recognized, and of course, the winners were awarded. The event was formally ended by Ms. Rina Diane Caballar at around 2:30 in the afternoon.
