Hi designers!
This is a special edition of the CU Design newsletter highlighting the winners of the CU Design-a-thon!
If you’re not familiar with CUxD (Cornell User Experience Design), we’re a centralized community for UI, UX, and product designers at Cornell. We learn and grow together both professionally and socially!
