PROJECT: Already Beginning Concepts (ABC0)

One of the most important things you should do is get situated in the class discord. The link to the discord is located in the Syllabus near the bottom of the second gray Squircle. Your classmates will be there as are others who may provide you with insight and assistance as you navigate the processes of this and other projects this semester.

Once you join the discord, please indicate what classes you are in, in the general chat channel(for example, “I am taking 'cprog' and 'unix'”; or “I am taking 'discrete'”). Then you will be added to the appropriate role and be able to utilize the class-specific discord.

Do note: by identifying the class/classes you are taking part in, you will likely earn your first week participation points. Don't just join and remain silent: you will miss out on points.
