Winfo Hackathon overflows with ideas
With close to 250 students participating and more than 100 on the waitlist, this year’s Winfo Hackathon was the biggest yet. Led by the Women in Informatics student group, the hackathon brought students to the University of Washington HUB on Jan. 27 to work on projects and develop solutions to a wide array of issues. This year’s hackathon theme was “infinite possibilities and infinite solutions.” Keynote speaker Amy J. Ko, a professor in the Information School, kicked off the event emphasizing the value of the hackathon experience and celebrating human potential and creativity.&nb
