What exactly is the mannequin challenge?
If you’ve been on social media for the past couple of days, I’m sure you’ve seen a video or two (or three, or twenty) showcasing the latest trend.
The concept is simple. Participants strike a pose and hold it, while someone goes around recording the put together frame.
There are videos ranging from professional and collegiate athletes, to members of students organizations, to music artists, to fraternity and sorority members.

So collegiates, my advice to you is to gather a group of friends, and make your own #MannequinChallenge video. It’s fun, easy, and hey- you might go viral for doing nothing but standing still!
