What would possess thousands of people to stay awake for 54 hours, spending time and money trying to figure out trifle facts like, who the first police chief of New York City was. Trivia ’87, that’s what. For the past seventeen years, UWSP’s 90fm has become the home of Trivia Mania and this year the tradition continued. Once again it hosted trivia. ’’Trivia 18”, an event which has become the world’s largest trivia contest. The marathon began Friday, April 3rd at 6:00p.m. and ended Sunday, April 5th at midnight. The logo for this years contest was.’’short and sweet”, due to the fact that President Reagan changed daylight savings time, three weeks early, one hour was cut off the usual playing time. Anyone can enter the contest, either alone or with a team. The teams in Trivia ’87 ranged in numbers from 15 to 300 members. During the musical breaks, teams call in their answers to the questions aired on 90fm. The object of the game is to acquire the greatest number of points by answering the questions ranging in point values from 5 to 500. There were 337 teams this year and a new Trivia Champion was crowned. ’’Hour 54; Where Are You”, the team headed by Scott Shultz,( Stevens Points’ new mayor) won first place, dislodging, ’’network” which had won consecutively for the past four years but had to settle for second best this year. The third place trophy went to Substation.” Trivia is the biggest fund raiser for 90fm and it is sure to continue to be such in the future. So. why partake in Trivia? One of the participants summed it up best, saying, It’s crazy, I spend too much time and money on it, but it’s a means of escapism. Actually, I really don’t know why I do trivia, but then again, I wouldn’t even consider not participating.” 99999.016 001-057

Homecoming As always. Homecoming Saturday was sizzling with action. The day kicked off with the traditional Homecoming parade which made its way through campus and ended its route at Georke Field where the Pointers went on to defeat the UW-Oshkosh Titans, 17-7, in the afternoon football game. Baldwin Hall took first place in the Banner Contest and the Float Competition was won by the men of Sigma Tau Gamma. The week’s events concluded with the Cotillion Ball sponsored by the Residence Hall Association. Entertainment was provided by the UWSP Jazz Band and the new Homecoming King and Queen, Michael Jameson and Becky Chambers of Hansen Hall, were crowned. The closing of the Homecoming activities did not tame the spirit of the week's festivities and the fire is continuing to burn at UWSP.
