So sX (Startup Exchange) is a bunch of different things. One way to describe it is the hub for student entrepreneurship. But it's more than that - it's a movement of students who want more from their college education than what their classes provide. It's a movement of students who have passions, and who aren't okay with just letting them go to focus on their grades. And everything we do is kinda under the banner of entrepreneurship.

So to help people, we run a bunch of different programs. Startup Semester is our pre-incubator where we teach people with ideas how to go from idea -> startup. We teach them customer discovery, figuring out what to build, building the product, etc.

HackGT is going to be the biggest hackathon in the south. Check out http://hackgt.com for more info.

3 Day Startup was the first event we ever threw - it's basically an entrepreneurship based hackathon where you try and create some kind of startup in 3 days. They're rarely good, but it's awesome in teaching the basics of entrepreneurship - and they're always a lot of fun and you meet kickass people.

Startup Chicks is a community for women in entrepreneurship. They're doing some awesome things and are well connected to the other Startup Chicks chapters around GA.

Anyway, that's a ton of info. Let me know if you find any of that interesting. The best way to get involved is honestly just to come into the room. We're one of the only student orgs that has their own space (it's in the library), and in the Fall & Spring semesters there are always badass people in there. Just come along, and get to know people. We're always looking for help.

Oh, and last thing - we do meetings every Friday at 4 during the Fall and Spring semesters.
