Being a student at Santa Clara is a special and unique experience. Broncos walk away at the end of their time on campus with many collective memories. We presented to you 16 of the more common SCU experiences that span the generations. Broncos helped us narrow them down to one singular winner – Living in the Dorms, “The Ultimate SCU Experience!”

 

How it worked:

March Madness – Bronco Brackets started with 16 common SCU experiences, matched up in pairs of two, which the SCU community voted between. The competition was single elimination, with the winner of each pairing moving on to the next round.
