Kettering Students Awarded at Michigan State University's SpartaHack 9
Amanda Koziol, Jaydin Freeman and David Glover won the Sustainability-Climate Change Mitigation Hack and the MSUFCU-Community Class Act Hack at Michigan State University's ninth annual student-run hackathon, SpartaHack 9.
Over 600 student developers and designers gathered at Michigan State University in East Lansing on January 27th, 2024, with a unifying challenge: engineer innovative solutions to everyday problems - in just 24 hours.
Hackers had to make their projects track-specific and pitch them to judges, who used criteria including uniqueness, technical implementation, and practicality.
