Steve Bussey, a student in our Software Engineering program, traveled to the University of Michigan to compete in “The Most Epic Hackaton” last weekend.  A Hackathon is a 36-hour event where teams build full-scale applications and the coolest ones win.  You can learn more about hackatons at http://www.mhacks.org/. This hackathon was particularly epic because over 1000 people competed in University of Michigan’s arena:
