Founders Day Trivia Competition
Each weekday from March 4-11, 2009, a new question will be posted on E-Net before 10 a.m. All Elon students, faculty and staff are welcome to submit one answer to foundersday@elon.edu, and at the end of each day, all correct answers will be pooled and a winner chosen at random.
For help finding the answers to the trivia questions, visit a display in the Moseley Center on Cannon’s life and legacy. Answers may be submitted until 6 p.m. Please note: A question was NOT posted to E-net for Friday, March 6, 2009, which has extended the competition by one day to Wednesday.
Participants may only win one prize during the daily contests but are eligible to win a grand prize drawn on Founders Day – provided they have answered all five trivia questions correctly.
The trivia contest is sponsored by SGA.
A special chapel program will be held Thursday, March 12, 2009.
