Move Fast, Think Faster!

1^st place wins $200!

2^nd place wins $100!

… with more prizes to come.

All UCSD students are invited to compete for prizes using teamwork, brains and speed. In the Great Campus Race, teams of two or three will get a list of clues which they must solve. Each clue answer will correspond to a location on campus. Racers are free to use any means to solve the clues, and are encouraged to call friends and/or use the Internet. The first team to be photographed at each of the locations and return to the finish line will win. Racers may only travel on foot or using a campus shuttle.

The race will be held on Saturday, April 12^th at 1:00 PM. Check-in will be from 12:00 to 12:30, with a pre-race briefing at 12:45. The Start/Finish will be on the Forum level of the Geisel Library (concrete area under the tower.)
