Seattle SICP Study Group

Attention Seattle area Programmers who are interested in learning Scheme or reading SICP.
I am organizing a Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs study group. We will working though the book, videos, etc related to the excellent book by Harold Abelson, Gerald Sussman, and Julie Sussman. The group meets up once and week as well as discussing online. We will cover roughly one section of the book per week. It should take about 16 weeks to cover most of the book. We will be keeping a brisk pace, Fall 2007 break in Nov 07 for a month and then back at it Spring 2008.
If you are a graduate or undergraduate student, this would make a good independent study class or two class series.
There is a great SICP curriculum on MIT open courseware site. PLT Scheme provides a great implementation for use during the study group.
Nothing is set in stone for the Study Group structure. I started a Google Group
initially created as "restricted" and the postings invisible to non-members. We should decide as a group what the final policies are.
Interested? Questions? Email me
