They really know their UC history

Earlier this year, the University of California continued its sesquicentennial celebration by challenging students, faculty and staff to test their knowledge of UC history with a quiz featuring questions about each campus. Some questions were a cinch for most participants (which campus is known as the birthplace of the Free Speech Movement in the '60s?), while others stumped almost all comers (only 26 percent aced the question about the UC system's connection to the World War I Food for Victory campaign).

UC gathered all the names of people who scored 100 percent and selected 25 at random to receive the prizes shown above. Two of the winners are at ºÙºÙÊÓƵ: Kelly Collins, an analyst in Health Information Management, ºÙºÙÊÓƵ Health; and Nancy Louks, finance manager of the Arts Administrative Group on the Davis campus.
