Dorm Wars

The first Dorm Wars competition was held March 31-April 1, 2006. Residence Halls developed teams to participate in Dorm Wars, which encourages team building and a sense of community among the residents. Teams were rewarded for sportsmanship and encouraged to have fun while competing with fellow classmates for the Dorm Wars Trophy. Dorm Wars 2006 was such a success that it has become an annual event and the 2007 version is scheduled for the spring semester. Dorm Wars events include:
