Welcome New Students

New Student Guide

Welcome to the UA Little Rock ACM Student Chapter! We’ve put together this quick guide to help new members find the key resources, event info, and contacts you’ll need to get started.

Meeting Day and Times

We meet on Friday, August 29th and every other Friday after that in EIT 324 from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM. Come hang out, learn about upcoming events, and connect with fellow ACM members.

Bad UI Competition

Our first big event this semester is the Bad UI Competition! Create the most inconvenient, confusing, or hilariously broken user interface you can imagine. Submissions are due September 26th. Open to all skill levels!

Trojan Engage

Track official ACM events and announcements through Trojan Engage. This is the best way to stay updated with all student organization activities.

Discord

Join our Discord for real-time group communication, project discussions, and casual conversations with fellow members. This is the main hub for staying socially connected.

Slack

Prefer something more professional? Join our Slack to receive the same announcements shared on Discord. Slack is a great alternative if you’d like a more structured environment.

Event Calendar

Visit our ACM Event Calendar to see all upcoming meetings, workshops, and competitions. Add it to your personal calendar so you never miss out.
