Non-team specific Channels

While SSI consists of 6 distinct teams, a large number of channels are general to all SSI members. These channels are great for cross-ssi discussions.

General Channels

#general - typically for general SSI-wide announcements
#random - for things you want to share with SSI that doesn’t belong in any other channels
#dankmemes - pretty self explanatory. Try typing "/dank" in the channel.
#spacenews - to talk about the current state of space affairs
#ssipac - politics
#best-of-slack - compilation of the best moments on SSI slack
#welcome-to-ssi - channel to welcome new members and answer any questions
#diverssity - A place to speak about relavant issues
#women - A place for women and gender minorities to speak about relavant issues and bond and stuff
#new-frosh - for the new frosh to speak among each other about young people problems

Class Channels

Want to collaborate on a classes with other SSI members? We make channels for classes in the format: #ssitakes[course#]. Ex:

#ssitakescs106b

Team Channels

Each team has a general announcements channel of the format: #[teamname] (ex #rockets) where general team wide discussion and announcements will be made. Sub-projects, and often subsystems of subprojects will be in their own channels. This is usually where the engineering takes place!
