"As the world revolves around Massachusetts, it's not much of a surprise to see the Bay State featured in a "Jeopardy!" clue, but on Monday night's "Tournament of Champions" game, a whole category - "Schooling You in Massachusetts" - was dedicated to colleges here. Can you ace it? Answers (in the form of questions, of course) are at the bottom."
"$400: This women's college may have a common name, but it boasts some very uncommon alums - Gloria Steinem, Julia Child & Betty Friedan $800: Original poems & manuscripts are part of the Emily Dickinson collection at the Jones Library of this liberal arts college $1,200 (the contestants didn't buzz in for this one): Though its name screams "the law," this U. in Waltham has no law school; to get a J.D. with this name on it, go to Louisville"
A Tournament of Champions Jeopardy! category focused entirely on Massachusetts colleges. The $400 clue identified Smith College, noted for alumnae Gloria Steinem, Julia Child and Betty Friedan. The $800 clue referenced Amherst College, whose Jones Library holds Emily Dickinson poems and manuscripts. The $1,200 clue noted Brandeis University in Waltham, whose name suggests law but which has no law school, with the J.D. bearing that name issued in Louisville. The $1,600 clue pointed to Northeastern at 360 Huntington Avenue with Nahant and Burlington campuses. The $2,000 clue named Mount Holyoke in South Hadley as the oldest of the Seven Sisters.
