 Jeopardy!
is going back to college as 15 hopefuls all vie
for a chance at $100,000 in their annual
collegiate invitational.

Welcome back to Jeopardy! 101. Your teacher,
Professor Trebek. Your class, two weeks of
intense competition. Your final, only enough
desks for three people to sit. Your reward for
passing: $100,000. Students from the usual spots
(like Columbia and Stanford) and the
not-so-usual spots (like Florida State and
Davidson College) have come to challenge the
Pittsburgh representative in the annual fall
classic of collegiate quiz shows.
For the next two weeks, GSNN will lift the
tournament off the Shorts pages and into the
Extra. Here you will see archived matches,
commentary, and a bracket to chart the progress
of the tournament. Aside from the winner, the
second place winner is guaranteed at least
$50,000 and third-place is ensured $25,000.
Semifinalists
are guaranteed at least $10,000, while all
tournament players are guaranteed $5000 for
participating. Any and all monies, as always,
depend on how far the player moves up the
bracket.
Today's game,
Fleming/McCool/Schoenholtz, is now available for
view.
