School for Hackers. They have got the trophy to prove it. Maryland beat

did it by sending the most students to five hackathons last year. They
placed first in two of them. But wait. If you're thinking these schools are celebrating college kids who break into computer networks, you're wrong." (Source: http://www.npr.org/2014/03/19/291475082/pizza-perseverance-and-skills-at-a-major-league-hackathon, accessed 20 March 2014)
