Saluki App Competition - Deadline Approaching!

Friday, March 21st is the deadline for submissions to the Saluki App Competition.  A help session is scheduled next week:
Tuesday, March 18
11:30 a.m. -  1:30 p.m.
Woody Hall, C227
Email reach@siu.edu in advance and we'll order you a sandwich for lunch!  In the meantime, here are some FAQs (from http://siu.launcht.com):

How do I know for sure if my idea is unique?
Does the competition require that I submit a completed and operational App?
  • No, as long as you can describe it well, have an image to show what it will look like, and a video to show what it will do, you should be OK!  Of course, you may have an advantage over competitors if you can demonstrate a working App.;)  Read the Guidelines for information about submission requirements.
