+What is Control Systems Club?
+	Control Systems Club is a club focussed on research projects related to
+robotics, mechatronics, programming, electronics and more. The purpose of this
+club is to provide a structured way for us to work and collaborate. I know that
+I struggle with finishing my projects when there is no external pressure. When
+done right, clubs like this provide motivation and stakes for us to finish our
+projects.
+	The project we are working on this week is an underactuated biped
+system.
+	The first week of Control Systems Club will revolve around a set of
+reading assignments so that all members can brought up to the same level of
+technical competency.
+	<a href="http://math.mit.edu/~gs/linearalgebra/">Introduction to Linear Algebra</a>
+	<a href="http://gen.lib.rus.ec/book/index.php?md5=3A039E6BB43D417004D63149C7A97163">Non-linear Control for Underactuated Mechanical Systems</a>
+
+	In terms of organization, we will have meetings every week for planning,
+then assign the job of designing various parts of our system to each member to
+complete on their own schedule. Strong expectations are put in place for them to
+complete their tasks with good documentation.
+
+To apply, ask me for a form in person.
