SMU Guildhall hosted its annual GameJam on August 19, 2023 as part of Orientation Weekend. The event invited incoming students in Cohort 33 to attend alongside senior cohort students in Cohort 22, faculty, staff, and VIP community guests. Participant teams are given one day to create a game with an assigned name and theme. At the end of the 12-hour event, each team presents their game and the — often hilarious and impressive — results of their day's work.
