Solana Across Campuses: Emory

​Solana Across Campuses: Emory

​Blockchain at Emory is bringing Solana Across Campuses to Goizueta. Come through Thursday, Oct 22 from 6 to 7 PM in Jenkins Courtyard at the Goizueta Foundation Center for a hands-on intro to crypto and Solana.

​Free Chick-fil-A, first come first serve.

​You don’t need any experience, and you don’t need to be in the club. If you’re curious about crypto, come, whatever your major or school at Emory.

​What we’ll cover:

• ​What a blockchain is and why it matters

• ​Why Solana: thousands of transactions per second, under a cent per transaction, built for payments, gaming and finance

• ​Apps people use today, like Jupiter, Kamino, Parcl, Pump.fun and Jito

• ​Where to start if you want to build (Anchor vs. native Rust)

• ​The University Blockchain Conference in Austin, Nov 20 to 21: travel subsidies, 50+ companies including Coinbase, Gemini, Google and Polymarket, and on-site recruiting. Blockchain at Emory is going and we want you there with us.

• ​Live wallet setup: bring your phone, leave with your first Solana wallet and maybe some SOL

​This is part of a campus series run by college.xyz and the Solana Foundation at universities around the world. Bring a friend. See you soon.
