Never in the history of the human race has there been a group as fortunate as computer science students. We have unlimited access to untold quantities of free information with which to better ourselves. We encounter few barriers that we can't overcome through hard work and a little ingenuity. We have the unparalleled ability to pursue our own ideas, follow what interests us and share our creations with the world.
