On Your Mark! Logue Library goes beyond the Scavenger Hunt with an "Amazing Race!"

 

 The Amazing Race Casts YouTube and Vine Stars | Digital Trends    International Travel, Nation-Branding, and Orientalism: Conflicting  Portrayals of Americanism in "The Amazing Race" - Inquiries Journal

 

Logue Library created an interactive game that introduced students to the library with an "Amazing Race theme!"  

This event was part of  Chestnut Hill College's "Welcome to CHC (WCHC 101), a required class for all first-year students.

The tasks that the students completed where done within 90 minutes which was geared towards team-building and stewardship.  The game was loosely based on the Emmy Award Winning show on CBS which features eleven teams of two that travel over the world completing various tasks.  

In Logue Library's version, students were in teams of two to four and traveled throughout the building finishing assignments such as:

(1) Putting a puzzle together

(2) Reciting a quote while being videotaped on their phone

(3)  Other fun tasks that involved candy!
