Here are the winners of the three grand prizes in last Fall’s Code Game: Tyler Jewett claimed the first of the Code Game Grand Prizes. He and a friend just thought it would be fun to play — “and it was!” One of only 24 students who finished all 5 challenges, Tyler’s name was pulled for $100 in winnings. Freshman Nicole Conn won the second $100 Code Game grand prize. Emily Pleshinger played the Code Game in ‘07, too, but didn’t win any prizes. This year, she tagged along with 3 friends … and won big twice! She says she’ll share her winnings with her puzzler friends.

Great thanks to all who played the Code Game!

Alden Library will be closed beginning Friday, December 19, at 5:00 PM through Monday, December 22, 8:00 AM due to floor sealing in the seventh floor mechanical rooms. Environmental Health and Safety requires that there be no occupants in the building for 48 hours after the sealing application, which means access for anybody other than the installers and others specifically authorized by EHS.

Due to work on the server both InfoTree and ILLiad (the Interlibrary Loan system) will be unavailable for an hour (or perhaps a bit less) starting at noon on Monday, December 8. This may also affect access to many online databases and other online resources. While the server is down, many of the affected databases should be available via OhioLINK’s website.
