Help for people doing homework at Cascadia
The various file servers here at Cascadia have been experiencing some instability, and it looks like we may be experiencing more in the future.  I've put together a document detailing some strategies & tricks for continuing to work productively, despite the outages.


IMPORTANT BOOK INFORMATION!!!!
There's been a small, BUT CRITICAL, change between the previous version of the textbook (Version .80 or lower), and the current version (.90, or higher). Within the code, and the book, we will talk about locations within a city. The city resembles Seattle, in that it has north-south AVENUES, and east-west STREETS.

Here's the change: In the prior version, location was specified as AVENUE, THEN STREET.
In the newer version, location is specified as STREET, THEN AVENUE.


Interesting Interviewing Page
Slashdot has an interesting meta-article on interviewing in the high-tech industry.  Definitely interesting reading.


There are a ton of books available to you, as Cascadia students, for free, through Safari Books Online.  Safari has books from publishers such as O'Reilly, and is way cool.  Here's the URL:

http://proquest.safaribooksonline.com/?fpi=&uicode=uwash
Also, some people have had trouble using the Safari Books Online. Hopefully, this document will clear up any problems.


Cascadia Announcements:

Printing Limit: Each student is allowed to print 600 black and white, and 30 color pages per quarter.  After that, you can purchase an additional 600 sheets (from the cashier, in Enrollment Services) for $20


In the event of inclement weather affecting morning classes, there will be notification on the local media by 5:30 a.m. You may also call the main campus number: 425-352-8000 to hear a message that will be updated with the latest Cascadia closure information. You may also go online to www.schoolreport.org and click on Cascadia Community College to get the latest report.
