RE:  Secret Snow Mission
Thanks to the extraordinary stamina, creativity, and long underwear of seven special agent teams, Snow Central is now safely guarded by many extraordinary snow creations.
The Order of Ingenious Icicles (OII) in Reykjavik, Iceland, have declared the following:
Grand Prize Winner of Snow Mission 2021: 
A Monument to Christ College.  Created by Nick Skrobul and Jakob Wiegand.  The OII stated, “Simple, yet elegant and architectural.  Most photogenic.  True CC spirit.”
Honorable Mentions:
Most Elaborate Construction with Found Art:
Snow Frog, Robbit, with four three-"toad" legs, warts, and an upcycled tongue found buried in the snow.  Created by the Snow Ribbiters (Mary Emma Zimmermann, Allison Plachta, Logan Albright, and Carolina Bowen).




Most Existential:
Tim. Created by Kate Overn and Jillian Downs.  “If a snowman falls in a field, does it make a sound? He screams, for he does not know.”




Most Pandemically Appropriate:
Childish Pingüino (featuring the egg of Knxwledge): a rapper’s plea to wear a mask.  Created by Sarah Bortz and Kristine Hayden. Photo Credits: Emily Friedman.




Most Ambiguous:
Burial Mound for a Fallen Knight.  Created by Lara Brown, Eric Blassick, and Drew Witte (CC).
Coolest Construction and Clever Concept:

The Sunken Fortress.  Located in the volleyball court valley, but visible from Mueller Hall.  Its distance represents the climb to wisdom.   Created by Elias Anderson (CC), Kurt Metzger (CC), Joel Stoppenhagen, Maro Allen. Photo Credits: Daniel Owens.







Most First-Year Program Perfect:

Socrates on a Snowy Evening.  Created by Grace Aurand, Joely Overstreet, Ellie Roeglin, and Simeon Ehm.
I am sure he is asking...Do You Want to Build a Snowman!?!
