Just a quick, fun post here…
This past Thursday, the Wells Library held a game night for freshman and new students at IU as part of the school’s new student orientation week. The IU Archives was asked to help with one of the events, a Jeopardy-style contest featuring questions about the university and its history. After some diligent work, Dina came up with a solid list of over 60 questions (or, technically, answers, since it was Jeopardy) for the new students. So, I decided to share a few of them for you folks today. Ill post the answers in a later post, so, stay tuned…
1. Jordan Field used to be at this campus location.
2. Her father paid her $5 to apply to IU and in 1867, she became our first coed.
3. Now a functioning house museum, this was the home of IU’s first first family.
I wanted you to know that I read your blog, but I have no idea as to the answers. Is this last one Wiley House. I have to get better at my IU history!
