Humans vs. Zombies game runs today through May 5 on campus

The Humans Vs. Zombies tag game (using Nerf weaponry) is happening now on campus. The game will be taking place from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. April 28 to May 5.

Humans Vs. Zombies is a game in which a group of pre-registered players (humans) attempt to survive the growing zombie infestation on campus (posed by other players tagging the humans). The human players will be fending off the zombie players by launching foam Nerf darts at the zombie players. Humans will wear bright orange armbands on the upper arm, and zombies will wear orange bands on their foreheads.

The goal of the zombies is to turn all players into zombies. The goal of the humans is to survive the week.

The use of specific Nerf blaster models has been approved through proper Student Activities channels in conjunction with University Police. These toy blasters are very brightly colored and do not resemble realistic weapons. The game is not allowed to take place inside campus buildings and will be confined to exterior spaces on campus.
