Creative team photos from RGD's 4th Designathon

At RGD's Designathon last week, students and grads spent 12 hours working on real-life design projects for non-profit organizations. To encourage a well-deserved break from their hard work, we asked that they share creative team photos for a chance to win FREE registration to DesignThinkers. Take a look at the submissions!
