Hi everyone! It's the start of a new year, and that means it's time to join Swarthmore College Quizbowl! It's perfect for anyone who likes learning trivia, competing in tournaments (don't worry we're very relaxed about it so there's no pressure about making mistakes and it's super fun!), pressing buzzers, or just making friends with some friendly fellow nerds! Come to our first open practice on Saturday, September 11th in Trotter 201 at 4 PM, and/or come to our table at the Activities Fair on Friday. Feel free to email me at [email protected] or Martin Rakowszczyk at [email protected] with any questions.

Hello fellow Swatties/S'mores! For anyone who's interested, Swarthmore's one and only Quizbowl team is looking for new members. We'll be holding weekly virtual practices (maybe more frequently than that if there's interest) where we'll read practice questions, learn some trivia, and have fun! We're also hoping to participate in some online tournaments with other colleges and maybe run some campus-wide trivia events. All are welcome regardless of experience or knowledge level! If you have even the slightest modicum of interest, or if you're not interested at all but have nothing else to do at the moment, please fill out the form below. Also, feel free to message me if you have questions; we'll also be at the virtual activities fair. Our first interest meeting will be on Sunday, September 13th at 3:00 EST; we hope to see you there!

Create a new survey on your own or with others at the same time. Choose from a variety of survey types and analyze results in Google Forms. Free from Google.

A program worth looking at for anyone in quizbowl of an underrepresented gender.

PACE is proud to announce Quizbowl and Gender Solidarity Mentorship (QaGS) Program. The QaGS Mentorship Program aims to connect quizbowlers of underrepresented genders, including women and nonbinary quizbowlers, hoping to become more involved in quizbowl with experienced mentors with similar gender experiences.

Sign up here and we will match you with a mentor and/or mentee within 2-3 weeks: http://bit.ly/paceqags
