» Blog Archive » Texas A&M Launches Social Media Scavenger Hunt Texas A&M News & Information Services

Readers,

This should be VERY interesting! Texas A&M University is launching a campus-wide scavenger hunt! According to the A&M News and Information Services website (LINK):

Texas A&M University is teaming up with The Collegiate Licensing Company to launch a first-of-its-kind campus-wide social media scavenger hunt using smart phones. The scavenger hunt, scheduled for Jan. 25-26, is designed to encourage the university’s nearly 50,000 students to explore their 5,200-acre campus as never before—and reward those checking into campus destinations using their smart phones.

What a great idea! Recently, I started using Four Square and I plan to visit each of the locations on the TAMU campus very soon!

Does your university have a similar program?

Sincerely,

Millennial Professor - Jennifer T. Edwards, Ed.D.
