The ACM (Association for Computing Machinery) is an international professional society (similar to the IEEE or IPENZ, for example). You might want to check the [ACM Website|http://www.acm.org/] for a detailed description of what the ACM provide; a brief description is that they run a digital library, sponsor conferences, that kind of thing. |

The ACM like running student chapters in Universities, in order to increase their membership. WaikatoUniversity have one of these [see Waikato's chapter page|http://www.cs.waikato.ac.nz/studentacm/]; basically, it's a group similar in scope to the WaikatoLinuxUsersGroup, but with a general CS focus. It can do whatever it wants; previously they've had talks from a couple of CS professors and looked after the organisation of a graduate students' roadshow of NZ. |

The ACM chapter at Waikato has often languished with respect to the WLUG having a very large overlap in its area of interest. |
