The “Buck the Menu” Starbucks Sweepstakes competition has come a sweet close.

The Collegiate Men of VSU was declared the winner earlier this week for the competition, which started Dec. 3 by SGA member, Taylor Ratcliff. The competition was sponsored by the SGA and V-
State Dining.

During the first round of the competition, student organizations could submit their organization’s logo to the VSU Dining Facebook page in hopes of having their drink featured at the VSU
Starbucks for a month. The five organizations with the most likes on Facebook made it to the next round.

In the final round, the top five organizations, Media Arts Geniuses, Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc., Kix Art Circle, Xchange Ministries, and Collegiate Men of VSU gave out samples of their drinks at Starbucks for voting last week.

CMVSU came out on top with their drink, “A Gentle Blend.” According to the V-State Dining and CMVSU Twitter pages, a portion of the proceeds Collegiate Men receive on their drink sales will go to the Valdosta Southside Recreation Center.
