We’ve been asked by several people what schools we’ve invited. We invited the following schools as they tend to be the ones on most top 10 lists for computer science. We figured this would be a fun competition between the top schools where the contest could be over programming instead of sports.
If you attend any of the schools that have not accepted yet (including those that have declined), please lobby your computer science department to accept. If they are interested, please contact me at david@windward.net or call at 303-499-2544 x1185.

Where is Virginia Tech?

How about Cal-Tech and UCLA ?

Alan;
We were working from the previous years list (this got started sometime ago). We did ask Cal-Tech (because of their relationship with Harvey Mudd) and they declined. If you go there, please ask the department to reconsider.
We will reach out to UCLA.
thanks – dave
