We’re very excited to be having everyone at Wichita State University. We have a week full of education and entertainment in store (work hard, play hard!).
Sunday afternoon kicked off with a short introduction to classes followed by the welcome banquet and music bingo!
Upcoming
Attendees/faculty can earn participation points for their class in the following ways:
- Morning walks (Monday – Thursday, 6:00 – 6:40 A.M)
- Evening events
- Bowling (Monday, 6:00 – 9:00 P.M.)
- Trivia (Monday, 7:00 – 8:00 P.M.)
- Minute to Win it (Tuesday, 7:00 – 8:30 P.M.)
- Scavenger Hunt (Monday – Thursday, 7:00 A.M – until found)
The class with the most points (relative to class size) will be announced Thursday night at the closing banquet and each class member will receive a prize.
Clues for the Scavenger Hunt will be sent out through the blog each morning at 7 A.M. Additional clues will be sent through Instagram throughout the day until the “idol” is found. The hidden idol will be worth 1 point for the class and give an advantage to the game! (Instagram, @rmasfaa). Here’s today’s first clue:
Today’s survivor idol can be found along the commute from Shocker Hall to Rhatigan Student Center.
Board games will be available all week in the lobby of Shocker Hall (this is not an official event to earn points).
We will start each day with our kick-start session at 8 A.M. where all students will meet outside of Rhatigan (THE MERGE!!). It will give the attendees the opportunity to mingle with students from different classes as well as being informed about what is happening that day.
For all the RMASFAA fans tuning in from home, we’re excited to have you following along! In keeping with trivia tonight, here’s a trivia question for you:
Which U.S. state is home to the most tribal colleges and universities? Hint: it is a state in the RMASFAA region.
Stay tuned for the answer on tomorrow’s blog!
More information on tribal colleges and universities can be found on the American Indian Higher Education Consortium (AIHEC) website: https://www.aihec.org/tribal-colleges-universities/.
Additionally, the RMASFAA Native American land reference guide recognizes tribal groups that are part of each state in the region and includes website links, as available, for members to learn more about the culture and traditions of said tribe from the primary source, ensuring that members have access to accurate historical information about Native Americans: https://www.rmasfaa.org/docs/DEI_Land_Guide.pdf.
