Diversity Committee at APSU

Happy holiday season! Join the Diversity Committee for a fun and interactive Virtual Escape Room Holiday Party.

Sponsored by HELM Life, this interactive game will allow you to experience diversity in other cultures. You will virtually enter stores owned by someone who celebrates something different and have to solve puzzles along the way! Put your heads together with other colleagues to fill-in-the-blanks and follow the clues to finish on time! Join us on your lunch hour at noon on Dec. 6. There will be prizes to the team that finishes first!

Register here by noon on Friday, Dec. 2, 2022: https://helm.life/group-holidays-world/?eventcode=APSU-HOLIDAYS-1206-2022-8242
