Seven Quads. One Champion!
The Quad Cup serves as an inter-quad competition designed to cultivate a robust and resilient campus community through a diverse array of events. In collaboration with QuadEx, students from both East Campus and West Campus will come together to form teams, representing their Quad Connections in engaging events throughout the semester. Points will be accrued for each Quad throughout the Spring 2025 semester, specifically during Quad Cup events. The Quad Connection amassing the highest points by the end of the competition will be bestowed with substantial prizes, including the prestigious Quad Cup Trophy.
