Preface — What Escapism Was
Lynn-Rose College Hackathon · 2026

A day for
building things.

Escapism was Lynn-Rose College's hackathon. Six hours to take an idea in your head, this time a portfolio, and turn it into something real. Code it, design it, break it, fix it, ship it!

"We wanted a day where students actually got to make stuff, not just sit and watch." The Escapism Team · Lynn-Rose College

Registration is closed and the event has wrapped. What's below is a small archive of the day, new photos are incoming but have a quick look back at how it went.

  • It Actually Worked

    The day pulled students out of their usual routines and into something different. Building, problem-solving, working together on things they actually cared about.

  • People Built Real Things

    Not hypotheticals or slideshows. Actual projects. Games on Roblox, websites, etc. Students picked whatever language they knew (or wanted to learn) and ran with it.

  • What's Next

    Our hackathon is done for now. However, student projects from their classes will keep landing on the main page, that's where the building keeps happening.

Thanks for coming out.

To everyone who showed up, built something, and made it real, that's the whole point. Thank you!
