UHCL invites students to participate in new social media initiative

Students at University of Houston-Clear Lake have a chance to win big for showing their school spirit through a new social media initiative.

Beginning Sept. 14, students can win free UHCL giveaways by participating in a social media contest designed to engage the UHCL community and promote school spirit as part of Blue and Green Wednesday. Here’s how the contest works:

Every Wednesday, students are encouraged to show their UHCL pride no matter where they are by wearing the university’s colors, blue and green.
Then, snap a photo of yourself in blue and green, and post it on social media using the hashtag #BlueandGreenWednesday. Don’t be afraid to get creative with your posts!

One winner will be announced every Wednesday by having their photo shared on UHCL’s social media accounts, and will win a free UHCL T-shirt. Be sure to follow UHCL on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram to find out who wins.

Students may only win a t-shirt once. However, all students who participate throughout the semester will be entered to win the grand prize of a UHCL prize pack with several giveaways. That winner will be announced at the end of the semester, so students are encouraged to continue sharing their photos every week.

For questions, email socialmedia@uhcl.edu, or leave a comment or message on social media.
