I seem to recall from waaaaaaay back in the day (early/mid-'90s) that
HBCUs participating in the HCASC were not allowed to participate in
the larger CBI tournaments, and maybe were even contractually
excluded from participating in non-HCASC quiz bowl events in general.
My memory could be deceiving me on these points, and the situation
might have changed in the interim, but I just thought I'd throw that
out there in case anyone remembers more clearly than I do...
Oh, and for those of y'all in town this weekend for the tournament at
Maryland: Should you feel like going into D.C. this fine evening,
you can catch me DJing at the Eighteenth Street Lounge from 9:30 to
11 pm. (I had thought about maybe signing on for the Maryland
tournament, but the late-night DJ lifestyle isn't very compatible
with getting up early on weekend mornings!) Info:
