Finals Week Activities

Meme Battle

Entries accepted now through 12/6 (11:59pm)

What better way to relieve some end-of-semester stress than making memes? Make a Shrek meme related to finals or the end of the semester (keep it clean!) using one of the templates we have provided, or use one of your own. We will share all of the memes on our Instagram feed and stories throughout finals week, and EVERYONE who enters will win an exclusive sticker of a Shrek-ified Green Terror!

How to play:

  1. Design your own meme(s) that somehow incorporate Shrek (not just the character) and finals week. Remember to keep it clean! Inappropriate memes submitted will not count towards earning the sticker prize.
  2. Submit your meme(s) by 11:59pm on December 6th either by sending it via direct message (DM) on Instagram to @HooverLibMcDaniel or using the form below:
