The Trivia Contest
Coffee Mug

The trivia question taken from this month's CyberTiger is: What was Mark Fiore's '91 major when he graduated? The winner will receive a CC coffee mug!

The April trivia question was: "In addition to her many literary and creative achievements, Amy Tan has appeared in a popular animated TV show. What is the name of that show?" Kathy Stahlman's '78 correct answer that Amy Tan appeared on "The Simpsons" means that she will soon receive a CC pennant in the mail. Congrats, Kathy!
