5/6 Who won the College Jeopardy?
\_ watch next week and find out
\_ Is it true that Jeopardy contestants get all the questions and
answers (or just categories) beforehand, in the form of a huge
book, much like those 5000 SAT Vocabulary Words books?
\_ More or less, YES. They tell you the category, some
specific fields to study, etc. Think of the movie
"The Game Show" but they give you A LOT of answers.
\_ I was on College Jeopardy from Berkeley back in 1993 and I
can tell you that you are totally wrong! They NEVER gave
us the categories before we walked up to those leturns and
started taping. They did tell us in the interviews that
we might want to study "college oriented areas" like pop
music, colleges, films, and current events. But they
never told us, "You will need to study Black history and
Architecture and British Lit." In all fairness though, I
was a chem major then and I did get a Chem Lab category.
