LUX students will work on a major project that, in within the first semester, will span the SYA720, SPR720, and NAD710 courses[[Fedora]] community. For details, see [[LUX Project]]. == Facilities ==
== Events ==The LUX program uses these two rooms:* SEQ building room S2149 for lectures.* TEL building room T2107 for labs. These systems are equipped with data recovery cards, which allow one of several virtual disk drives to be selected at boot time. When the machine is restarted, the original drive image can be restored almost instantly. This enables you to install software or change the system configuration without permanently affecting the system configuration.
There are three events coming up this semester which In addition, LUX students have access to the [[CDOT Development Systems]] on the first floor of the TEL building for their project work (access cards will be of interest issued to each LUX students:student). == Semester 1 Courses ==
