After feedback from interested teams, we have officially set the date 
for Sunday, October 19th, 2003, at Loyola's Lake Shore Campus. It 
will be held in conjunction with Northwestern University's Midwest 
Mirror of the Princeton PriCK tournament, which is on Saturday, 
October 18th, 2003. If you're already signed up for PriCK, consider 
extending your quiz bowl weekend one more day and driving twenty 
minutes down Sheridan Road into the beautiful and exciting city of 
Chicago, Illinois.

"LUC, I Am Your Father" is a round-robin, packet-submission 
tournament which is open to all pre-baccalaureate students up to 
their fifth year of college or university studies and a maximum of 
ONE graduate or adult player per team. It is designed to be 
accessible to undergraduate TRASH players and TRASH players who are 
just starting out. Undergraduate players will be asked to present a 
valid college or university ID before playing. Mixed-school 
affiliation teams are permitted as long as all players meet 
eligibility requirements. Players of all schooling levels will be 
allowed to participate in Northwestern's PriCK Mirror, which is an 
open academic tournament. 

Difficulty level for "LUC, I Am Your Father" will be between TRASH 
Follow That Junior Bird and TRASH Regionals. Question distribution 
for the packets will be identical to that of the packets for Viva 
Trash Vegas, and will be re-posted shortly.
