Truman Week
College Cup Challenge Team Events
The College Cup Challenge is designed to build a sense of community within each team and help you begin to establish important connections with other students.
Community Tik Tok Challenge
Put your collective creativity to the test to produce a video that will showcase the celebration, understanding, and engagement of different perspectives and lived experiences. Participants are not required to make an actual TikTok but can opt for a short video that addresses the theme in the style of a TikTok video.
Ridiculous Relays
How well do you work with your classmates? Show off your teamwork by participating in the Ridiculous Relays and help your team will the College Cup. The participating teams may choose to hold preliminary trials to determine who will be part of their final team for Friday night’s event at Stokes Stadium, others may just ask who is interested. It is entirely up to the team.
Bulldogs in Action
Are you committed to serving others, or even just helping someone out for a couple of hours. The Bulldogs in Action program is a great way to discover opportunities in the Kirksville community to make difference by serving others….and earn College Cup points, too! Helping others is a rewarding way to start the day on Saturday morning.
