The Open Computing Facility (OCF) is an all-volunteer student organization dedicated to free computing for all UC Berkeley students, faculty, and staff. Volunteers build and maintain real infrastructure: a physical computer lab in 171 MLK Student Union, web and email hosting for thousands of student groups, free printing, shell accounts, and high-performance GPU computing. New members join by showing up to weekly Wednesday night meetings at 7:30pm and contributing to open source technical projects.
