Categories
Regular membership is
for individuals who are employed by an institution of higher education
and whose teaching or administrative responsibilities include
significant, non-routine computer usage. Such individuals are typically
faculty who teach about or with computers, or individuals involved in the
support or delivery of academic computing services. Only regular members
may hold office in the Consortium. Affiliate membership (Non-Voting) is available toany individual or organization who wishes to keep
informed of the activities of the Consortium, and includes all the
benefits of regular membership except that affiliate members may not hold
an office or vote.
Membership
Benefits
All members receive the
Journal of Computing Sciences in Colleges. Five issues each year present
refereed papers from nine regional CCSC conferences, notices of interest
to members, and reports on the activities of the Consortium's Board of
Directors.

About the Consortium
The purpose of the Consortium is to promote the betterment of
computer-oriented curricula in two- and four-year colleges and
universities; to improve the use of computing as an educational resource
for all disciplines; to encompass regional constituencies devoted to this
purpose; and to promote a national liaison among local, regional, and
national organizations also devoted to this purpose. Predominantly these
colleges and universities are oriented toward teaching, rather than
research.
The Consortium holds meetings in conjunction with other computer
education organizations, on its own, and sponsors sessions and tracks at
such meetings. The annual meeting of the membership is held in
conjunction with the ACM/SIGCSE Technical Symposium on Computer Science
Education.
