By now, IEEEXtreme 3.0 should be over. This year there were about 700 teams participated in the contest- which means about 2100 competitors.

One of our profs has extended the deadline of an assignment for one class with following condition:
“IMPORTANT: Spend some time with your family if you can on Thanksgiving. That was a condition for the extension of the assignment. If your family is not in Ottawa area, send a Thank You card to them or call them before you work hard on the assignment (hopefully not). ”
Happy Thanksgiving.
