Black Founders Startup Ventures is having a Hackathon for college students (http://startupsathbcus-dc.eventbrite.com) on February 15th, 2013 at 3pm Howard University in Room 2019, Downing Hall. The goal is to give students a 24-hour experience on what it is like to build a web or mobile app, then present their app to the attending participants.

We're calling on the students of all majors to spend a day with us building your ideas. The event is free and sponsored by a number of great organizations. If you need more information, please feel free to contact: Hadiyah Mujhid(hadiyah@blackfounders.com)
