Calling all Postgraduate Researchers – your University needs you! In 2012/13, the university wants to win University Challenge! To do this, we need the finest brains at the University of Liverpool to come together and challenge the best of the rest.
The Guild will be holding ‘trial’ quizzes on Friday 2nd November and Monday 5th November for this year’s team. You only need to come to a section of one of the trials.
There are around 100 questions to answer and those with the best results will be selected to be in the team for this year. The trial on Friday will be between 12 and 4pm in Mountford Hall at the Guild of Students. The following Monday venue is yet to be confirmed but will take place between 5pm and 8pm to allow those who can’t make the Friday session.
To register your interest and sign yourself up for a trial please fill in this form: University Challenge 2012 and send back to guildpres@liv.ac.uk by Wednesday 31st October at 5pm. This is a fantastic opportunity to make new friends and challenge yourself, and maybe get on TV too – so don’t miss it! The team needs a diverse range of skills, general knowledge and specialism so we are encouraging students from across campus at whatever level to put themselves forward.’ This is just the sort of thing to enhance your CV so it’s a great activity to put in your Portfolio of Activity – whether you meet Jeremy Paxman or not!
