  • Stay on schedule: Please keep to your allotted time.
     

  • Safety first: Walk please—no running.
     

  • Scavenger Hunt: Students should complete their Career Jam™ Scavenger Hunt Card & look for volunteers with orange collection bins to turn it in for a chance to win a custom pair of Nike sneakers!
