Social Media Contest for Animal Science Students
Doug the lamb
A toy lamb and gift cards will be used by the department of animal science to get students more involved with the department's social media presence.
The first of every month, an obscure picture of Doug, a toy lamb, will be posted showing his current hiding place. The picture will be posted on the department's Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Pinterest pages as a clue for students. The first student to find Doug and turn him in to receptionist Jeannie Hornsby will receive a $10 Wal-Mart gift card. Participants must be current animal science students and provide their student ID number.
