Georgia Tech College of Computing alumni are invited to a Homecoming reception at the Clough Undergraduate Learning Commons! After a day of gazing into the digital future at the College's anniversary-capping event, "Sunbird: A Symposium on the Future of Computing," you can unwind and enjoy the beautiful view from the Clough rooftop garden!

At 7pm, longtime instructor Bill Leahy, director of College's Division of Computing Instruction, will give a guided tour of the "retroTECH: A Hardware History of Computing" exhibit on the 3rd floor of Clough. Curated by Leahy himself, the exhibit is a display of historical computing hardware and memorabilia that together tell a story about the history of computing—including some early ties to Georgia Tech.
