We call it: Staff Hunger Games.
The way the game goes is this: the staff are divided into "districts" based on the building that they primarily work at and every couple a weeks, a person "dies" with a story released on how they died. It sounds a little bit violent and maybe creepy, but I assure you it's a team bonding activity that has created many new jokes and as a result brought us all closer together.
After an entire semester of "staying alive," I was informed by the writer that my death was recently posted this morning. As morbid as I sound by saying that I am very pleased with my death, I assure you that if you were me, you would like it too.

Carmen
District: Johnson Center
Death by Hair Flipping: Carmen was a sneaky little thing. She realized that the others thought she was dead, caught up in the mist that took the rest of her alliance, except Ashley. Since the game was coming down to the last few people, she understood that the time for allies was over; they would all have to kill each other at some point and she prefered not to have to kill someone who had once worked with her to survive. So, she played the Foxface card, being stealthy around the other's camps, stealing enough food to live, but not enough for the tributes to notice. She thought that she could do this long enough to wait until everyone else had killed each other off, not realizing that she was still around, hiding in the shadows. Then one day, she woke up to the sound of someone whistling, "What Makes You Beautiful" by One Direction. She followed the song, not being able to resist the catchy tune. When it got to the "the way you flip your way gets me overwhelmed" line, she started flipping her hair, as was her custom before she entered the arena. She was dancing along, flipping her hair crazily. Yulia took this moment of vulnerability and shot an arrow straight in Carmen's back. Carmen dropped dead, but her hair looked fantastic from all that flipping.
Ashley continued to whistle the song as she climbed through the trees.
And that, my friends, was how Cita died. Sneaky, betrayed, dancing/musically inclined, and hair always looking good.
