The Weather’s Still Cold, but the Competition’s Heating Up

February 24th, 2009 at 11:11 am

Anyone keeping a close eye on the leaderboard this week has surely witnessed that last great scramble for points… and it’s only Tuesday. Every campus with the “Most Points This Week” has 10,000+ and there are more than a few campuses just outside of the Top 10 looking to sneak in. The OCC Team hasn’t quite been able to figure out if you guys are vying for those five spots on the OCC Trip to Africa (more details to come!) or if you’re gunning for a spot in the Top 10 to compete for the #1 spot (and our as-yet unannounced prize for that) but one thing is for sure – you guys are not messing around.

We’re announcing our Top 10 Campuses next week, and they’ll be receiving $1000 grants to fund their own poverty awareness-raising projects on their campuses. The points get wiped clean once they’re in the Top 10 and every campus is in equal contention for our awesome Grand Prize, which is secret for now, but trust me, you want it. So take one last look at our points page for a couple more ways to boost your school’s numbers. They range from quick and easy to more demanding to all-out creative, so see what strikes your fancy and take some actions!
