Several years ago, an innovative graduate student from the Psychology Department suspected that an undergraduate student's greatest wish might be to see their professors pied in the face ... and that they might be willing to pay good money for such an honour, too. And so, every year, graduate students continue the tradition in collaboration with the Psychology Department's Turkey Challenge - an annual fundraiser initiated by CBC Radio in support of the Edmonton Food Bank.
There are two categories of classes: 1) Classes greater than 100 students 2) Classes less than 100 students. Classes will only be competing against classes whithin their category.
Each class gets their own donation jar. Contribute during in-class visits, or come by the Psychology General Office.
Whichever class has the most donations by the end of the term gets to pie their prof!
To eliminate the confound of class size, donations are calculated per capita for each class.
Example: $1000 donations / 100 students = $10 GDP
