Subject: IEEExtreme 4.0
I’m a little late in sending this note because the IEEE was slow to post
official results, but I still want to congratulate the three undergrads
from our department who had a great showing in the IEEExtreme 4.0
programming contest that was held in October. This is a grueling 24-hour
programming contest that drew 970 teams from around the world. Only two
American teams placed in the top 25 and our team placed 34th overall, so
it’s clear that they did extremely well. They were first place in region
6, which represents most of the western US. Full results are available at
this page:

So please join me in congratulating them on their great performance.
