  Joining the Insanity

Membership in AB Tech is open to all Carnegie Mellon students (there are no dues). In general, we recommend members have a good sense of humor and a willingness to push heavy stuff.

Twice a year (September and January) AB Tech is at the Activities Fair along with other student organizations. Stop by, sign up, and we'll email you a place to show up to meet everyone else and start pushing stuff.

Generally our most extensive training is held after the September fair, but we encourage you to join at any time. After your sixth event, you'll "learn our secret handshake" and be considered a full member.

Other options for joining tech include:

  • emailing abtech@andrew.cmu.edu Again, we'll send you some places you might spot us in the future.
  • stopping by at an event. Follow the loud music to its source, and you have probably stumbled across some techies. Say Hi!
  • following a friend. Our members are fine, upstanding students at Carnegie Mellon (or so we hope), and should know our schedule.
