🦆 POV: Student Services called in a professional to announce the Duck Hunt.

Sheldon has spoken—the Fall 2026 NMSU-A Duck Hunt begins August 18! 👀

As you head to class, grab lunch, or explore campus, keep your eyes peeled for hidden ducks. If you find one:

✅ Grab the duck
✅ Bring it to Student Services
✅ Claim your prize 🎁

This campus-wide hunt is for NMSU-A students, so get ready to start searching!

⚠️ Important clarification from Sheldon: real ducks are NOT part of the hunt. 😂

Find your duck. Find your path. Find your success at NMSU-A!
