Since June 2003, when GITI was created, it has been an interface of seriousness and record keeping… last week I decided to deviate from that just a touch. I have added a few games to the interface using some games from Google Gadgets. I’m hoping to write some games of my own to put in […]
Today both the textbook and the notice of cancellation for "Advanced C++" arrived at the same time via USPS. Quite brilliant.
Even though CPCC has canceled their Advanced C++ course, some other institutions are offering web-based Advanced C++ courses. Lenoir Community College and Pitt Community College are the two primary schools offering the course. Unfortunately, it is way too late in the registration period for me to feel motivated enough to work with the administrative hurdles […]
Nothing substantial, just making a simple correction for the dropped course.
CSC153, C# Programming has now taken the place of Advanced C++ on my schedule for Fall. It is a new language for me, and it will give me something to work with in Visual Studio (I’ve always had it, just never really used it). I worry that the course will be just another over-simplified "welcome […]

Almost all academic institutions now give students e-mail accounts. UNCC uses Exchange, CPCC used GMail, NCSU and UNC use some undisclosed email server and Gaston College uses Novell’s NW Mail. All of the institutions keep email accounts active for multiple semesters, or at least retain email in the boxes, even if the accounts aren’t active. […]
All of my records have found their way to their destinations, according to the Gaston College admissions office. A few hours after the confirmation came from the admissions office, the registrar had transferred my Personal Health/Wellness credit from CPCC. Now I am just waiting to make sure my transient study authorization for the Digital Photography […]
