HackSLU is Saint Louis University’s first-ever multi-day hackathon from March 22-23, 2025 led by

two student-run organization chapters, Girls Who Code and SLU Association for Computing

Machinery. This event hopes to bring students from different backgrounds into a common space

that encourages collaboration, creativity, and a culture we would like to foster in our university.

Our vision is to bring 50 hackers of all experiences together to find solutions
