RA groups split up and took students out for dinner. Renae took a group to Good Stuff Eatery in Georgetown. This is a famous burger spot that served Michelle and Obama during his term.

RA groups hosted a team man hunt on the Georgetown Campus. Ra’s were instructed to hide in the building and students had to find them. Once found, they took photos with the RA. Here is a picture of Iese with his Ra group.
