Morrill Community Builder Highlight

Cody Thornburgh's passive puzzle program has everyone scratching their heads. This puzzle is no easy task, as it requires its participants to painstakingly place 9,000 pieces (that's 4.5 x 6 ft).


The puzzle is located on the 9th floor of Morrill Hall, if you want to stop by and check out the progress. MHRA also lent a helping hand in creating the program and is considering opening it up to the whole hall!


This was the puzzle that started it all. Cody purchased a 2000-piece puzzle that he worded on when he had a break. Residents were soon stopping by, and before he knew it, the thing was finished in ~30 hrs. No one slept, practically, until it was finished. 


The ultimate plan for the puzzle is to donate it to the children's hospital.


 The finished product should look something like this....only 6 ft. wide!


Think you could pull something off like this in your own hall? What an awesome way to passively engage the community. Great job Cody and MHRA!
