CORS Annual Conference was about two weeks ago. It was my first time being involved in organizing a conference at this scale and I absolutely enjoyed it. As a twist to the routine of the virtual events, I suggested to add a fun small competition to the conference in the form of a daily "OR-themed crossword puzzle". I honestly did not expect the wonderful positive feedback we got! Dr. Fatma Gzara, the chair of the conference, was immensely kind and praised my designs at the awards ceremony which I'm very thankful for. I have included the crosswords below if you are interested.
