Spirit Spot Showdown
Show your creativity, your school spirit, and your pride in a colorful new campus tradition.
The Spirit Spot Showdown invites students, faculty, and staff to paint a parking spot in the Hagedorn Hall lot with designs that celebrate Adelphi’s spirit and community.
Winners receive a reserved campus parking spot for the semester!
How the Spirit Spot Showdown Works
- Submit a design proposal that follows our official guidelines and promotes school spirit and inclusivity. Compete as a team (maximum of 4) or as an individual, the choice is yours!
- If selected, you’ll be assigned a parking space to paint in the days leading up to Spirit Weekend.
- Once all spots are complete, the entire campus community will vote for their favorites! Voting will begin on the day of the Spirit Weekend Campus Kick-Off. All painted spots will remain as functional parking spaces for the remainder of the semester.
- Winners receive a reserved campus parking spot for the rest of the semester! Winners will be announced and contacted after Spirit Weekend.
