Abstract

The Computer Science Department at Northwest Missouri State University sponsors a computer programming contest each spring for area high school students. The contest draws about 250 people each year. The Olympiad has provided valuable student contact for the Computer Science faculty. The Computer Science Department views the Olympiad as a very powerful recruiting tool for the university. This paper will address the development of the Computer Science Olympiad at Northwest Missouri State University.
