Virtual Challenges & Activities

A series of virtual activities provides an opportunity for Brown community members to connect and engage with one another safely during the fall semester.

Throughout the Winter Quiet Period, Brown invites anyone with a current brown.edu email address — including students, staff and faculty — to participate in a series of virtual challenges for a chance to win a prize from the Brown University Bookstore.

Share what you’ve been reading, write a haiku, create a meme for our times, develop a backstory for the Brown Take Care bear and more. Challenges will be shared throughout the month of January on the University and Campus Life Instagram channels and are detailed below.

How to Enter

To enter, share your submission, along with your Brown email address, via direct message to @brownu on Instagram or by email to browntakescare@brown.edu. Participants do not need to be living on campus or in Providence.

All challenges are open through Tuesday, Jan. 26.

Winners will be chosen at random and notified directly via email or DM within seven business days. Prizes will be mailed directly to the winners.

All entries may be posted, reproduced and distributed by Brown without compensation to the creator, but the creator of the content maintains rights to their original content and will be credited.
