(Belatedly cross-posting from HSQB) Princeton College Bowl is pleased to announce that PARFAIT III: Live Free or Die Hard will be held Saturday, November 17th on the lovely Princeton campus. PARFAIT is an MACF academic tournament open to all teams affiliated with a college and other teams at my (almost certainly granted) discretion. This year's PARFAIT is, like last year's, NOT a packet submission tournament. Packets will be written by Princeton plus a couple of mirroring schools which are still being worked out. Central editing will be done by Princeton. The distribution will be as follows: Literature [5/5] (At least 1/1 American, 1/1 British, 1/1 European, 1/1 World) History [5/5] (At least 2/1 or 1/2 American, 2/1 or 1/2 European, 1/1 World) Science [5/5] (1/1 Bio, 1/1 Chem, 1/1 Physics, 1/1 math, 1/1 Astro/Earth/Computer) Religion/Mythology/Philosophy [3/3] (1/1 each) Fine Arts [3/3] (at least 1/1 Art, 1/1 Music) Social Sciences/Geography [2/2] (at most one geography question) Choice [1/1] Cross-category questions are encouraged; must be academic. Trash [1/1] The advertised difficulty is that of last year's edition, which is to say, harder than ACF Fall, but not much harder. Fees are still being worked out--they will be posted here as soon as we nail them down. As before, travel discounts are available for teams planning to travel a significant distance to attend. If you fit that qualification, contact me and we'll come to an agreement. To register or to ask any questions about the tournament, e-mail me at gdavid (at) princeton (dot) edu.
