There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Graduates of computing programs are in demand and land higher-paying first jobs on average than graduates in most other fields, according to a recent article on Yahoo! Hot Jobs. A survey of 2007 Georgia Tech grads shows that those graduating with a B.S. in Computer Science reported the highest starting salary offer ($84,000) and the second highest median starting salary offer ($60,000) of all students graduating that year.
