This week we held our first annual Campus Office Olympics. Fun was had by all teams and the collaboration and connections was incredible. Congratulations to team 501(c)(3) Athletes for winning gold, Fueled by Caffeine and Spite took home the silver and Mission Possible took home bronze. And we cannot forget Collaborative Chaos for their great efforts to try and cheat. Thank you to everyone who participated, we cannot wait to see you at the next event.
