Consent Cupcakes is a fun and interactive tabling event where students can enjoy free cupcakes — with a catch! To receive a cupcake, participants must practice asking for consent. This engaging activity highlights the importance of respecting boundaries and reinforces the value of seeking and giving consent in everyday interactions. Stop by, grab a cupcake and learn how something as simple as asking can make a big difference.

This event is known as the world's largest student-run game jam. Students from universities across the country will create video games from the ground up over a 48-hour period. Students can also interact with industry professionals who will be on hand to serve as mentors.
