If you love trivia contests, this event is for you! The International Relations Council is hosting WORLDQUEST 2026 again this year and all ESU members and Friends of ESU are invited to attend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Teams of eight representing area businesses, universities, nonprofit organizations, community groups, ambitious students, and globetrotters put their global knowledge to the test. There will be six rounds of ten questions covering topics like global affairs, geography, world languages and cultures, history, and more in this fun and interactive competition. The winning team takes home the traveling trophy, while second-place and third-place teams win valuable prizes.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last year ESU sponsored a table of eight and we would like to sponsor a table of eight again this year, perhaps two ESU tables if enough interest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
