knowing what to do
Oct. 3rd, 2004 03:19 pmSo on yesterday's long run, I figured out what I need to do... I need to get involved with the local computer clubhouses again, this time with no particular agenda aside from "help out and get the kids exposed to cool stuff".
The degree to which Atlanta is segregated -- not just along racial boundaries, but class ones -- really hit me yesterday, and something needs to be done. And there are two clubhouses right here in the city, and there are a lot of kids who could benefit from this sort of thing... so I should help out. So I'm going to, so I sent some email and said "hey, I'm a CS student and I want to help; how can I help?"
Sound like a good idea?
