How to Enter

Don’t delay! The guessing game is open until Oct. 30 at 4 p.m. at the Department of Biology.
Special Event
If you need some last-minute inspiration, join us on Oct. 31 from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the Nideyinan galleria (formerly the University Centre) for a Halloween-themed event. You can submit your guesses and donations directly during this event, and the giant pumpkin will make a grand appearance!
The winner, whose guess is correct or comes closest, will be announced on Oct. 31 at the event and on social media. They’ll win Apple AirPods!
