Trivia Tuesday

It’s Trivia Tuesday!

The campus community is invited to watch The Dome for special “Trivia Tuesdays,” which will be published in every Tuesday edition throughout the summer. The first person to respond to pubrel@canisius.edu with the correct answer will win Canisius “swag.” Additionally, once a month on Tuesdays, there will be a special giveaway in which the winner will receive some of the newly designed Canisius Sesquicentennial gear.

Winners will be announced the following Tuesday of each week along with the correct trivia answer.

This week’s special trivia question is: How many student clubs and organizations are currently offered at Canisius:

a. 30+

b. 50+

c. 70+

d. 90+

And here’s a surprise … There was no winner in last week’s Trivia Tuesday contest. That’s only the second time we’ve been without a winner, since the Trivia Tuesday campaign was launched in September 2019. Last week’s Trivia Tuesday question was:

Which of Canisius’ varsity athletic teams has scored the most victories since Title IX went into effect in 1972?

The correct answer was: Softball
