Online Scavenger Hunt:

9 teams, 19 questions, 1 hour

who will survive?

    Ok so it wasn't as dire as the subheading made it out to be, but with gloating rights and a promise of a $10 Starbuck gift card (to grant the students the ability to add milk and sugar to their overpriced coffee) anything can seem dire at the time. what was truly interesting about this group activity was the array of information one can gleam using common searches. some questions were as easy as can one find 3 different dating search sites to specific questions as being able to find a house on Zillow between a certain dollar amount, with so many rooms and located in a predetermined city. A few of the questions were even as obscure or as difficult as finding an article for a conference written in 2010 by the Professor and finding out his middle sister's married last name (a question that a dedicated person in our group committed themselves to and actually found). There was one group, however, that completed the scavenger hunt in less than half an hour (much to the Professors surprise) and got all the questions right. This just reinforces the idea that privacy is becoming antiquated.
