SwampHacks XII – Judging Opportunity for CISE Graduate Students

Judging will take place this Sunday, October 18th, from 8:30 AM to approximately 2:00 PM, at the J. Wayne Reitz Union on campus. Judges will have the opportunity to evaluate innovative projects developed by student hackers throughout the weekend.  If possible, I'd greatly appreciate it if you could share our Judge Confirmation Form with interested students: https://swamphack.notion.site/7a53b41de22f8297b03e8121939e73da?pvs=105   Anyone interested can complete the form, and I'll personally follow up with additional information. I realize this is a last-minute request, but we'd really appreciate any help spreading the word to graduate students who might be interested!
