Poster-Boys for Worldquest!

The following photo was circulated in the World Affairs Council of Maine's April newsletter with the caption, "All concentrating on answering the questions". Interestingly, I think it may have been the only photo included that wasn't of the very top three teams... What can we say?? We were a team too good-looking to be denied!!!! :-)

Scenes from Worldquest!

(I can let you know via email if your name isn't listed above...)

The SEVEN places on our team to attend WorldQuest on April 6th at 6-10 pm will be decided once and for all this Tuesday, March 28th!

We'll have one last quiz based on The Week magazine's issue dated March 24th (plus a tie-breaker quiz, if necessary!) So, feel free to study up if you want to ensure that you go! :-)

Team members should be certain that they can make it to WorldQuest that night, plus be willing to do some last-minute cramming (about "flags of the world," for example, and the like... Official subject categories will include: "World Geography, Current Events, International Sports and Culture, Economics and Trade, International Scene, and Maine and the World." Needless to say, it would probably be handy to have, if possible, even one Business major, somebody who's taken Geography, and somebody who's Phys. Ed. or otherwise into athletics...)

If we place among the top three teams, rest assured that there'll be some appropriate compensation for team members' hard work and success!! :-)

Last but not least... van drivers needed!

WorldQuest!!!!!!!!!!!!

SJC Honors' Capstone WorldQuest participants will be announced Tuesday, March 28th!!!
