Re: Looking for QQBC 2022 Staffers
Your question is more applicable for someone who is considering registering for the camp rather than looking for information about staffing. If you are considering registering, however, high school quiz bowl players can be quite passionate about the subjects they study which leads them to build some...

I am unclear if you are asking about what criteria exist for prospective applicants to demonstrate expertise or if you are questioning th...

Re: Getting "Real" Literature Knowledge
To add to what Bollinger said, specialists tend to have their strengths and weaknesses within their category. I think this is easiest to see with science players because biology and physics are very different categories (even if they're both science) so a science player can be a physics nerd and fir...

Re: QQBC is looking for staffers!
Hi Harris, thanks for the questions, I'd be happy to clarify! 1. It's not a full summer job. The only time that staffers would be working full time (ie all day) is during the actual sessions of camp, and I intend to hold 2 sessions, so only two weeks. The other work is prep work, mainly marketing st...
