On Tuesday, October 20, the Class of 2023 held a scavenger hunt, which encouraged students to explore the Merle-Smith Campus.

The clues were created by the sophomore class Co-Presidents Elena Tongg Weiler '23 and Eli Zemsky '23 and included hints like: “The rosiest spot on campus, with a fountain to boast!” or to “Find the biggest M on campus.” The sophomores enjoyed being outside with their advisory groups and taking pictures at each spot on campus.

Congratulations to Dr. Lawlis’s advisory group for finding all 11 clues and being the first team to submit their photos! Thank you to all advisory groups that participated.

Clues:

Take a picture of your advisory with the Bengina at each location.
