Two teams of computer science students competed at the ACM Mid-Atlantic Regional Programming Contest on Saturday (10/15/2008). This contest included 161 teams from 66 different colleges and universities in New Jersey, eastern Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, the District of Columbia, Virginia, West Virginia, and North Carolina.

Our two teams were:

Dickinson White: Kent Carmine, Fabio Drucker, Lewis Flanagan
Dickinson Red: James Doyle, Richard Rast, Ke (Harry) Zhou

Dickinson White finished in 85th place, solving 2 of the 8 problems.

Dickinson Red recorded the best Dickinson finish since 1985, solving 5 of the 8 problems and finishing in 4th place! Only one team solved more problems (University of Maryland solved 7) and only two other teams were able to solve 5 problems (University of Virginia and Duke University).
