Charlie Crain tells all….

Yahoo! News – In Chicago, a Scavenger Hunt Unlike Others

“Some of this year’s challenges: Build a “Calvin Kleinometer”; produce “a McDonald’s Sad Meal”; construct a diorama tribute to dioramas with no infinite regressions; replicate Gustav Klimt (news – web sites)’s “The Kiss” using only lip prints made with cosmetics that haven’t been tested on animals; and “demonstrate conclusively that there really is a wrong way to eat a Reese’s (candy).”

UIC students are cool….Medill had its own scavenger hunt, but I don’t think it gave us as many oppertunities to be creative. Ours was a “public records and Chicago historical sites” scavenger hunt – checking out court documents, business filings and the Billy Goat. It was also one of the coldest days ever in Chicago – that made the hunt oh so much more painful….

but we had fun…
