Mission
The CWRU Quizbowl Team represents Case Western Reserve University at trivia and quizbowl competitions at the regional and national levels in both academic and pop culture tournaments. On campus, CWRU Quizbowl usually hosts at least one collegiate tournament per year. The time commitment for CWRU Quizbowl is entirely up to the player. Students can show to practices up at whatever times they are available during these practices. On average, CWRU teams attend 4 tournaments per semester across the Great Lakes region, in Canada and throughout the greater United States. Some players have played in one tournament over four years while others have played in thirty; each player chooses how active they would like to be. Most importantly, and unlike some other collegiate quizbowl programs, Case Quizbowl is not a blood sport. We intend for practices and tournaments to be fun, mind expanding, and humane. Any undergraduate or graduate student is welcome to join; just show up to a practice! We select teams for traveling competitions based on practice attendance and the rules of the events we attend, though we rarely have to turn people down when they wish to participate.
We have weekly practice meetings on Tuesdays and Friday from 7:00-8:30 p.m. in Thwing 301 and 302.
