UWO on Foursquare
All you need is a smartphone and an opportunity to stroll around the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh. UW Oshkosh now features a page on Foursquare, a social media site leveraging location. Foursquare allows users to roam wherever they are, “check in” at different spots, such as restaurants, stores, parks and museums, and claim badges. The badges can offer points, rewards and even, depending on the volume of check-ins, mayorships.

Here are the five badges you can earn on the UWO campus and how to unlock them:
 |
College Explorer: Check in to 10 different campus locations. “You’ve travelled far and wide to explore every corner of campus – all without getting scurvy. Magellan’s got nothing on you!” |
 |
Munchies: Check in to five different campus cafes or dining halls.”Nom Nom Nom. “That’s 5 check-ins at campus dining halls. You must be a Grilled Cheese connoisseur. You deserve a TV Show!” |
 |
Book Bender: Check in to any designated study area/library after midnight. “Looks like you’re throwing a late night bender at the library. Ain’t no party like a Pythagorean Theorem party!” |
 |
Quad Squatter: Check in to a quad or commons 10 times. “That’s your 10th check-in at the Quad. Either you’re majoring in Botany, or you just gave up on class altogether.” |
 |
Smells Like School Spirit: Check in at any sports stadium, field or complex five times. “Woah! That’s your 5th check-in showing your school pride. You’re a super fan! Now remember to wash off that face paint before you go to bed – huge mistake!” |
