Event 7: Nerd Skills

As with all NAU Aurora Olympic events, the honor system is critical.  Most of the events are timed.  Participants, like athletes, are expected to display the highest levels of honor in competition.  To certify results of this event, participants should video and then send the video by email to dreichert@national.edu (the head official of the NAU Aurora Olympic games) for verification. Questions may also be directed to this email.
