Thank You to All the Escape Room Helpers!

We had another successful escape room event during Welcome Week this year! We had 150 students register with a few dozen on the waiting list. The students had a great time and that is thanks to all of those who helped this year!

You can see the photos of the groups and their different times they escaped here. 

Thanks to our room helpers and escape room planning team!

Some others we need to thank: Ellis Library Circulation and the Journalism Library for letting us use all the ipads; Ellis Library shelving for shelving all the books we used during the event; Gayle Mooney and Jacqueline Eiben for helping order all the items we needed; Sheila Voss for helping with some escape room set up; and everyone who volunteered for the escape room run through back in July; And to anyone else we may have missed. 🙂

It takes a lot of people to help with this event and we appreciate all the time, big or small, you’ve contributed to make this fun event happen for the new Mizzou students.
