Nick and the Golden Ticket

A few weeks ago Nick Wisner, a junior in our SET program, was selected by Microsoft to receive a Microsoft Golden Ticket. Nick is one of only 50 students across the US to have this opportunity to experience the products, people, and culture of Microsoft. During his all-expense paid trip to Microsoft's headquarters in Washington Nick will have access to Microsoft engineers, unreleased technology, and grassroots innovators. He leaves for his trip tomorrow morning.

Congratulations Nick!

Mike (and Pete's) latest release

CREO is a puzzle game released by Michael Peddicord, a June 2010 graduate in SET. It won first place in Intel/Havoc's Physics Innovation contest last year. First place. Huge congratulations to him!

His website mpeddicord.com lists games he has made over the years under "Portfolio". CREO and his other games can be downloaded from there.

Also working on this latest release of CREO is Pete Angstadt - a graduate of the SET program last year. Pete spent a number of months working at EA and now works for Havok.

Hopefully their game will win again!
