Spirit Spot Showdown

The Spirit Spot Showdown invites students, faculty, and staff to paint a parking spot in the Hagedorn Hall lot with designs that celebrate 果酱视频鈥檚 spirit and community.
2025 Winners!
Congratulations to both Team Endless Summer and Team Feels Like Home!
How the Spirit Spot Showdown Works
- Participants submit a design proposal that follows the official guidelines and promotes school spirit and inclusivity. They may compete as a team (maximum of four) or individually.
- Selected participants are assigned a parking space to paint in the days leading up to Spirit Weekend.
- Once all spots are painted, the entire campus community votes for their favorites. Voting begins on the day of the Spirit Weekend Campus Kick-Off. All painted spots remain as functional parking spaces for the remainder of the semester.
- Winners receive a reserved campus parking spot for the rest of the semester! Winners will be announced and contacted after Spirit Weekend.
