Here are 21 reasons why:

1. The Makr Shakr cocktail-making robot. (Seriously?)

 

2. Open Lab 30-minute drop-in mini-sessions. (In, learn, out.)

3. Free breakfast—rise and shine!

4. Live student pitch-a-palooza for the Connected Future Innovation Challenge, Tuesday at 6:30 p.m. We can’t wait to see what these crazy kids have come up with.
