The University Challenge Quiz in aid of relief for the Haiti earthquake was held on 11th March 2010 at the Faculty of Law. In front of a packed lecture theatre, a team representing the Faculty and comprising Stuart Bridge, Janet O’Sullivan, Graham Virgo and Amy Goymour, faced a Cambridge Law Society team of Naomi Miles, Matthew Sinclair-Thompson, James Fox and Nathan Webb. Questions covered science, mathematics, history, music, and - of course - law. After no small amount of preparation and research, the Staff team were somewhat relieved to win by a landslide victory.
Tickets were sold for the event, and donations were collected in support of the DEC (Disasters Emergency Committee) Haiti Earthquake Appeal. A total of £1389.82 was raised. The event was sponsored by Freshfields and by Lexis Nexis.
