Community
Find Your People 🌈
The heart & soul of Purdue Hackers is our community on Discord with 1000+ people. Share what you've made in #ship, chat about rainbows in #lounge, share your music musings in #music, ask for technical help in #code—wherever you look, you'll find weird, kind, radically inclusive, and really cool people. It's also where we announce upcoming events.
Enter a world of magic, find people who push you to be your best self, and make awesome things together.
"All things are ready if our minds be so."
- William Shakespeare

This was the third time we've run Sound Galaxy (see the 2021 and 2022 editions!). Sound Galaxy inspired our current workshop format: 30 minutes of coding together followed by 30 minutes of hacking—and it's our most successful version of this workshop format. We have yet to run another workshop whose hacking section looks quite like Sound Galaxy's: everyone quickly finds their own unique way to hack on the final product, and they make mind-blowing things. During this edition, more than 10 people stayed well after the scheduled end time of the workshop (7:30) to continue working, which rarely happens. Much 💛 to Sound Galaxy.

Workshops are our flagship events, happening every two weeks on average. A typical workshop lasts one hour, and is divided into two sections: 30-40 minutes for coding together, and 20-30 minutes for the "hacking" section, where hackers are challenged to take it further on their own.

Hack Night
The Night is Nigh 🌙
Have you ever felt burdened by the weight of your ever-increasing responsibilities? Do you want to escape from reality, to a plane of existence far away from the endless monotony of daily life? Well, you can't. But you know what you can do? Come to Hack Night! 🌙
Hack Night is uninterrupted time to work on personal projects—anything from a little hack that you ship by the end of the night, to part of a larger project. We run Sessions throughout to help you get started. It's like a mini-hackathon every week. 💫 💻
Join us every Friday at 8pm at the Bechtel Center.
