Who says dissecting cooperative by-laws has to be boring?
Today, our BS Marketing students turned legal analysis into an active classroom adventure with a by-laws scavenger hunt for Marketing Elective 1 (Social Marketing for Cooperatives and MSMEs). Teams raced against the clock to navigate governance rules, voting caps, and surplus allocations straight from policy documents. Watching everyone collaborate proved that learning cooperative compliance can be both engaging and competitive.
Great job applying sharp critical thinking today, marketers!
