CAT Barcamp 2016

CAT Barcamp 2016 is an informal conference, or unconference, whose agenda is directed by its attendees and is open to everyone. Hosted by the Computer Action Team (hence, CAT) in the Maseeh College of Engineering and Computer Science at Portland State University, CAT Barcamp is not just for PSU students. Anyone who has an interest in being involved may attend. In the spirit of the Open Source Community, Barcamps are free of charge. The custom sticker for this year's event is a rectangular peel off with rounded corners featuring an animal formed by triangles and diamonds with a fire burning inside. They have a deep crimson color and a large-type brand in white that pops from the contrasting background. It makes a great addition to laptops seen around the festivities.

More about BarCamp

The sessions at a Barcamp are as unpredictable as the autumn weather in Oregon. They will be on various topics, from technology-oriented dev ops to non technology oriented ‘How to make the BEST grilled cheese EVER!’. Barcamps are unscheduled which means that the topics for sessions are not pre-determined. The timeslots for the sessions however are. Everyone gets a chance to pick a timeslot in which to speak in throughout the unconference.   Save
