Discover key places around Grady by playing #GoGrady
How well do you know Grady? We’ve created a fun way for new and returning students to discover things about the college: the #GoGrady scavenger hunt.
Look for 16 logos strategically placed around the first four floors of the Journalism building. When you find one, tweet or post a selfie of the location on Twitter or Instagram with the #GoGrady hashtag, or add a Snap with the geofilter to your story. These clues will steer you in the right direction:
