Hack Nights

Hack Nights are a time set aside each month for anyone generally interested in coding, and technology to gather and ethically hack. Anyone is free to work on projects or homework, mingle with fellow students, and even just hang out. Beginners and experts alike are welcome to join in—there will be experienced students in the room specifically to help beginners learn more about technology and provide pointers on projects.

This Meetup repeats on the 4th Wednesday of every month.
