See what people found during the CAS scavenger hunt

Since May 24 was National Scavenger Hunt Day, we asked the CAS community to find these items in celebration:

  • You, in Michigan gear
  • Something that represents your CAS major or department
    • Fine arts major? Maybe a paintbrush.
  • Best Non-Michigan “M”
  • Something you normally use on campus
  • Maize in other ways
    • We see a lot of “maize” at UM-Flint. Can you find maize in another context?
  • A relaxing moment in the outdoors
  • A furry/scaly/feathery friend
    • Pets are an important part of the UM-Flint CAS community too.

And we received some amazing responses! Take a look at these submissions:

Michele, a Lecturer II for our Physics program, found all of the items on the list!

There’s Michele in Michigan gear (and a banana hat).

Michele’s laptop shows off some physics facts and a cool cow.

A collection of Michele’s furry friends.

Something Michele normally uses on campus: an HDMI to VGA adaptor.

A Non-Michigan “M,” or upside-down “W” on a container of disinfectant wipes.

“Maize” in other ways: Corn! And a cool dino in the background.
