* Out and About: H&SS Second Annual "GameFest"

The School of Humanities and Social Sciences hosted the second annual “GameFest,” a symposium and exhibition on video game development, April 18. At an afternoon symposium, H&SS faculty discussed progress on the development of a new Game Arts & Sciences program at Rensselaer, followed by a panel discussion on “Second-Generation Connections Between the Game Industry and University Programs,” featuring guest speakers. In the evening, 20 teams of students showcased their work at the “Game Festival” in the Great Hall of the Darrin Communications Center. The April 24, Sunday New York Times Education Life magazine featured Rensselaer's Game Studies minor in a story on university game studies programs.
