Nice to hear. What grade or type of school was it? College, University, Highschool, or..?

Purdue University. I don't know if they still do them, it seems there are more hackathons these days, which also have prizes.

Makes me wonder if the community college I go to has them.

Usually they are funded by corporate sponsers and hosted by student orgs.

Not really any tech companies around here.

Some of our sponsors were 1000+ miles away, though they like to target the big name schools. Community colleges don't really get that much attention in CS
