What is the OneDU Spirit ScavHunt?

The One DU Spirit ScavHunt is a week-long team competition celebrating DU traditions, places, people, community and spirit.


Teams of 3–6 students will complete challenges throughout One DU Week to earn points.

Some challenges are quick. Some require creativity. Some require exploring campus. Some require talking to someone new. Some require your entire team.

You choose how you play.


Here's how it works: 

1. Build and register your team of 3-6 students.

2. Complete the challenges - new challenges will be released each day to the designated team captain

3. Document completion of a challenge with a photo, video or the requested evidence

4. Upload your evidence through the Spirit ScavHunt Submission Form.

5. Collect as many points as you can. Points will vary based on the challenge, and the team with the most points will win the title of OneDU Spirit ScavHunt Champions!!


Scoring: 

Easy challenges will earn you10–20 points, these are quick fins, photos and interactions.
Multi-step challenges, attendance at events, exploration and participation challenges will earn you 25-50 points
Big challenges require a bit more creativity, performances and service and will earn you 50-100 points.
