Rrowrr! Our recruitment challenge netted hundreds of new OCC members over the last two weeks, with nearly a quarter of them coming from the Ferrum College Panthers in Virginia. Honorable mentions go to the University of Florida and the University of Southern California, which also did great jobs recruiting.

With this big 20,000-point win, the Panthers leap up our Leaderboard from 45th to 30th place. It’s one of our biggest Leaderboard jumps of the year, and puts them just a few actions away from the top of the pack. One good petition-push or a couple of campus events might be all it takes!

Which goes to show you, this is still anybody’s game. The top 10 changes every week, and we’re really excited to see which schools and individuals step it up to win our top honors. So if you were thinking you’d just coast on your first semester success from here on out…think again!

And big congrats to Ferrum. We love an underdog–er, cat.
