A HACKATHON FOR 15-112 STUDENTS

November 11th, 2017

HACK112 is a hackathon designed for 112 students! A hackathon is an event centered around building a cool thing with a team. You already know how to make cool things with just what you've learned in the course so far, so we're excited to see what you all build!

It will be a great time to get experience trying modules that you could be interested in using for your term projects. CA mentors will be on-site to assist you with any problems.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to stay up all night?

No! We discourage this and will leave the campus between 2 AM - 8 AM to encourage everyone to sleep. Hackathons are great but being healthy and rested is always important.

What if I don't know how to build cool things?

Wrong! You know enough from the course thus far to build amazing things. Your term project will be a greater testament to that. However, hackathons are all about learning. You will learn a lot in the 24 hours and come out with something you wouldn't have thought you could make before.

But isn't there a homework do that weekend?

Nope! For the week of the hackathon only, the homework and lab are due Friday before the hackathon starts!

What if I don't have a team?

That is fine for now! We will be hosting a team formation session before the event for people to get onto team. During the event everyone should have a team because it makes it way more fun and awesome. But still sign up and register even without a team for now.
