The tradition of the annual Mint Cup competition continues to thrive as we embark on another year of pharmacy school! Our year-long battle involves 10 teams and unites 4 years of pharmacy students and faculty members. Our common goal is to claim victory in the prestigious Mint Cup.
At the Blue & Gold Gala, the Mint Cup is bestowed upon the winning team and student who garners the highest points to commemorate their hard work along with a personal engraving. Meanwhile, Mint Cup Teams will receive short term rewards including pizza parties, gift cards, and other various prizes to recognize their team’s achievements during the course of the year.
The Mint Cup offers an array of challenges, from intense trivia nights to engaging social events and wellness activities. Participation in events and activities offers numerous avenues to earn points for yourself and your team, contributing to the thriving spirit of the Mint Cup. Numerous initiatives throughout the year offer a diverse range of these events and activities including:
- Intramurals
- Social Events (ie. trivia night, Amazing Rx-Race)
- CAPSI Events (ie. Run for a Cause, blood donations)
- Wellness Activities (ie. pumpkin carving, gingerbread houses)
- Community Education
- Movember Challenges
- PAM
- Many more…
Above all, these opportunities foster an environment that nurtures teamwork, cooperation, inclusivity, and allow pharmacy students from different academic years and faculty members to connect and create lasting memories!
Join us for the annual Mint Cup competition and experience a celebration of involvement and dedication within the faculty, uniting team members in their pursuit of excellence and camaraderie.
