The First Carleton GitTogether concluded last Saturday (4/11/26) with 26 participants in 8 teams, which had 24 hours to work on a project of their choosing, mixed with games that influenced their final score. The weekend concluded with a closing ceremony which included presentations from all 8 teams, a catered dinner from Desi Diner with a GitTogether cake, and awards. All projects were a really amazing showcase of Carleton students’ creativity and work ethic.
