CUhackit is a group of passionate students who spend some of their time planning "hackathon" events on Clemson's campus. A hackathon is a creative marathon that is generally 24 hours where students from all majors can come in and create their dream project with help from other students, enlisted mentors, and company sponsors. The event is usually held in January but there is a freshman-only 12-hour hackathon that is hosted in October where students can learn and create outside of the classroom.
