Over the next few Saturdays, Ģtv students and Vice President for Student Affairs Thomas Segar will be part of a regional academic quiz bowl program.
Ģtv is the collegiate sponsor for Hometown High Q, an academic quiz show on KDKA-TV (CBS affiliate in Pittsburgh) that features high school teams from all over Indiana, Armstrong, Allegheny, and Westmoreland counties. The show is broadcast Saturdays at 11:00 a.m. (new), and the show from the previous week is broadcast at 11:30 a.m.
As sponsor, members of the Ģtv community have the opportunity to ask the Ģtv Video Question of the Day.
This year, in addition to members of the Crimson Guides, students who had been on the show as part of their high school quiz bowl teams and members of the Ģtv Ambassadors will be representing Ģtv by asking a question.
The new season of the show begins this weekend, on Saturday, February 8. Tune in and play along. You'll also see some of the new Ģtv television commercials reflecting the new brand.
