Here is an interest form that you should fill out if interested in attending NASAT.

New York NASAT 2019

Hello. I am looking to gauge interest for Team New York at this year's NASAT in Lexington, Kentucky in late June. New York has had a strong showing over the past few years, and last year our A team took 9th overall. I have spoken to Daniel Ma of Hunter and he was enthusiastic about helping to organi...

Re: Columbia Spring @ Columbia University (2/23/19)

I believe West Egg should have two teams (one in the national division and one in the standard division). I believe we paid all fees at Columbia Fall for both teams, but I may be wrong. Thanks.

Re: Prison Bowl XI Question-Specific Discussion

Thanks for the quick reply! 1. Maybe it was just me, but if I remember correctly there was an obscure-ish Gauguin clue that led me away from thinking it was talking about the Ghent Altarpiece, but I could be very incorrect on this because I'm not great at fine arts. 2. Very fair point on Milgram and...

Re: Prison Bowl XI Question-Specific Discussion

I really did enjoy this set and I thought it was the most creative set of the year. That said, I want to address a few questions that I feel could be improved. Packet 1: I felt that the lamb tossup was overall very difficult until the William Blake clue, but I'm not sure if there is anything that co...

Re: FACTS General Discussion

I second what Julia said regarding her criticisms.

That being said, I do feel that some of the literature tossups were weak in terms of stru...
