Congratulations to all of our DataFest 2022 @ Vassar participants on a job well done! With an extremely challenging data set, these groups all developed interesting analyses, compelling visualizations, and meaningful conclusions in less than 48 hours.

After a lengthy deliberation, reflecting the high achievement of all of the teams, prizes were awarded to:

• Loud ‘N Cloud (Augusto, Veronica, Jonny, Jack, and Mason) for developing a novel metric, winning Best Use of External Data/Analysis
• Taconic Parkway (Dazheng, Yixiao, and Shunji) for their graphical presentation of the data structure, winning Best Data Visualization
• Data Farmers (Daniel, Kishan, Huaihan, Jocelyn, and Orcun) for an impressive statistical model with appropriate interpretations, winning Best Overall Analysis

Once again, thank you and congratulations to all of our participants!

We would also like to thank all our consultants and judges for volunteering their time to support these teams.
