Will you take on the Old Main Hill Challenge?
Utah State University's Chemistry and Biochemistry Graduate Student Council is excited to present a fun new race to Logan's running community. Race up the stairs of USU's iconic Old Main Hill, and compete to see how many laps of the mile-long course you can complete in the allotted time. Winners will be given the title of Old Main Hill Champion!
The Chemistry and Biochemistry Graduate Student Council is a group of graduate students that are dedicated to advancing STEM interest among K-12 students, supporting the well-being of graduate students, and enhancing the educational experience at Utah State University. The fundraiser will help our organization with STEM outreach (such as participating in Science Unwrapped at USU) and other service opportunities.
