Our campus now has an official Student Association for Video Game Awareness, Research, and Development (SAVGARD). Anyone interested in participating in its activities should send an email to its President — Anthony McCulley (amcculle@umd.edu).

“A vibrant campus video games club will be a wonderful asset to our curriculum,” says Prof. Amitabh Varshney. (Thanks and a tip of the hat to Dr. Varshney for his efforts to get SAVGARD off the ground, sez the rest of us!)
