Hey Bruins, let's talk about integrity and win prizes! A row of digital avatars standing in a row.

Join us for a fun-filled afternoon with activities, a scavenger hunt, prizes and much more in Gather Town and spend the day learning about Academic Integrity!

Gather.Town is a web-conferencing software like Zoom, but with the added spin of being in a simulated digital environment. You can create your own character, move around and interact with other students just like in real life.

This collaboration between SSU and Academic Integrity Office is a chance for you to hang out with their peers in a fresh and interactive way and get some pointers on academic integrity!

GATHER ‘ROUND IN GATHER TOWN CONTEST

Leading up to this event, we are also running a multimedia contest open to all students until March 21st!

Are you creative? Do you want to win prizes? Throw down your artisitic gauntlet and participate in the Academic Integrity Media Contest.

Do you have a funny plagiarism experience? Or maybe you have a way to explain plagiarism so easily that a child would you understand? Decide on one of the prompts for the contest or tell us (or show us!) what "Academic Integrity" means to you for a chance to win!
