REGISTERED STUDENT ORGANIZATIONS SPIRIT CONTEST
Registered student organizations, get ready to show off that Redbird spirit! Our contest encourages RSO walking and mobile units to submit a spirited video (that incorporates the Homecoming theme, Redbirds Reign) with their parade entry on October 14. This can be a choreographed cheer, singing the ISU Fight Song, performing a song connected to the RSO, etc. A link will be sent closer to the parade to submit the video. Judging will take place Homecoming weekend with winners announced Monday, October 16, and monetary prizes awarded to first, second and third place.
