The Hunt is a 48 hour campus-wide scavenger hunt at the end of J-term. This year’s Hunt dates from Friday Jan. 24th 12:00pm noon to Sunday Jan. 26st at 12:00pm. Students compete in teams to complete various clues created by the all-powerful Hunt Masters, with an award of $1,000 to the winning team, and $800 distributed among other prizes.
There are typically about seventy-five clues that are not revealed until the official start of the Hunt.
Participants can form teams of up to 10 students (underclassmen only) and should come up with a fun name under which they will submit any videos, materials or simple answers to fulfill clues (for more information on how to submit materials, see the “How to Participate” tab). Team registrations will be open until the clues are released, after which point it at the discretion of the Hunt Masters to deign allow you to join. The more tasks or clues completed, the more points earned for that team. At the end of the two day period, the Hunt Masters will review the materials submitted by each team and determine the winner. The Hunt is capped off by the annual Hunt Gala on Wednesday Jan. 29th at 7:00pm in the lower part of the Grille, where winners are announced and the Hunt Awards are presented.
