Compete in the first Windward programming "code war" - a contest where each team (2-5 members each) races to solve the same problem (in this case, an AI-based challenge). Schools represented include MIT, CMU and Harvey Mudd. Put your programming talents to the test, engineer brilliant solutions, and represent your Cardinal swag with the chance to bring home some hardware. Learn more here and register your team here.
This will be the first of three LAN parties we're hosting with Low Battery this quarter. Come for Mario Kart, Brawl, Starcraft 2, TF2, Kirby, and many other awesome games! Bring your laptop and/or desktop. Got a console and projector? Bring that too. See you there!
