Who: Student, faculty, or staff teams of 1-6

When: April 22-30th, on your own time (during open building hours)

How to participate: Send your answers and a photo or video of your team in front of one of the RWKC puzzles.

Please follow all physical distancing and space occupancy guidelines as you participate.

Contact: Email kern@hampshire.edu with your answers and photos, or tag us in your picture on Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter. Please do NOT post any puzzle answers to social media! DMs are okay.
