In the past, the Game SIG as a whole has met on a regular basis to chat anything related to games and game development. It does not matter how much experience you have with programming or computers. There are people here who can help you learn everything you need to know. Try not to feel intimidated. I know I did before I started hanging out at the UPL, but there's no reason to be.
Nobody knows everything about computers or programming.
If you need help with something, just stand up and ask. If you don't, come in and help someone else. The UPL is located in the Computer Science and Statistics building in room 1341, on the first floor. The UPL provides a very large library of books devoted to programming in general, game programming, graphics programming, network programming, and a ton of other subjects too. The UPL also provides a good development environment.
