New Grad Students Welcome Party Fall 2010

Scavenger Hunt

Tick tock, goes a big loud clock

Take a picture with a large clock with at least two team members posed as the hands of a clock showing the same time at this location.

This large block letter P sculpture symbolizes the importance of lifelong learning and self-improvement

Take a picture of people making a word with the use of their bodies.

H20 is what an Engineer would call water

Take a photo with a famous fountain on campus, act like you are preparing to run through the fountain (or do it for real!!!).

Old John gave the land to start the university

Find his final resting place (grave) and take a picture of the team playing Plants vs. Zombies.

It all depends on your perspective

You would seem like a giant compared to this small scaled model of Purdue. Take a picture with one team member acting like Godzilla attacking Purdue. Then rub Lincoln’s nose in case you need some luck :P

That's one small step for [a] man, one giant leap for mankind."

This quote is from a Purdue alum… take a picture with him in front of his building and then try to fit as many feet as you can in the giant footsteps nearby.

The expression Go Ugly Early started at this sweet shop

Take a picture showing us your team’s sweetest look in front of Harry's.

Feeling hungry late at night?

Go to this café – they are open until 4 am! You can eat lots of Rice here. Take a group shot with the sign out front!

Roar! I’m king of the jungle!

This fountain flows with more than 100 years of memories from all who have stopped for a refreshing drink of water. Take a picture of all the team members quenching their thirst.

Can you find us?

Take a picture where the team members are hard to find but are present in front of Purdue Memorial Union.

STOP, Yield, Walk – Follow the sign

Do exactly what the sign says (any sign can work). The more creative, the better :)

Ignorance, the root and the stem of every evil. ~Plato
This place was created in the spirit of the original academy, an outdoor learning and teaching garden of ancient Greece founded by Plato. It is a popular place to enjoy a break between classes. Take a picture showing your best Greek dialogues between team members.

Show me the money!

Take a photo where one team member is withdrawing money from an ATM, and the other team members are trying to rob him/her.
