Squirrel Showdown is a game in which students can win prizes by attending College of Humanities and the Arts events, collecting prize cards, and turning them in. We created Squirrel Showdown in order to generate excitement and curiosity about attending events, learning new things, and connecting with new people. Our goal is for students to attend these incredible events and meaningful connection to events by College of Humanities and the Arts.
Attend an H&A Event and collect a card of a certain rank (10, J, Q, K, A). Combine those cards for a winning hand, share the hand with the Humanities and Arts' Dean's Office (WSQ 120), and enter for a chance to win prizes! Check out the prizes here!
Game Key:
RANKS (a.k.a. numbers) = 10, J, Q, K, and A
SUITS = ♣️, ♠️, ♥️, or ♦️
Card Ranks are as follows:
10s = Music Events
