The University of Chicago Scavenger Hunt (aka Scav!)
I became a Judge for the University of Chicago Scavenger Hunt, or Scav, in November of 2019. Since I became a Judge, we have only had virtual hunts until this May! It was so amazing to be in person to bring this event to so many people and celebrate this crazy tradition
In my capacity as the Communications lead for Scav, I organized our media appearances, such as this article in the Chicago Tribune. This article does a great job at capturing the chaos of Scav. Plus, we made the front page of the May 13th print paper! (5/10/2022)
