The American Constitution Society Chapter invites you to join us at Among Us Game Night next Friday on March 5th from 6-7pm via Zoom.

If you don't know how to play, we will teach you!

Among Us is a free game on androids and iphones, just search "Among Us"!

Attendees will also be entered into a raffle to win one of 3 available $10 gift-cards, which will be randomly awarded throughout the evening. Winners will be able to select their award from either iTunes, Playstore, or Starbucks.

In short, it's a game where we will have several groups of 10 people playing together to figure out which of the 2 (out of 10) are imposters. It's an ideal law student game where you get to argue guilt and innocence.

Zoom Registration Link: https://scu.zoom.us/j/98087346875...

Whether you're looking to become better acquainted with your peers - or just waiting for the chance to banish them into space where you think they belong - we hope to see you there!
