UC Clermont Respiratory Care Students Win Trivia Contest for Second Year
UC Clermont Respiratory Care students competed in the Tenacious Trivia Contest at the Explorer Conference held at Northern Kentucky University this spring.
We entered three teams and had the good fortune to win for the second year in a row. There were five colleges from Kentucky and the Greater Cincinnati Area competing in this contest which is comprised of questions about science, anatomy and physiology and respiratory care, said Academic Coordinator Michael Mullarkey for the Respiratory Care Program at UC Clermont.
The team took home a large trophy and a check for $500 - which the students have agreed to donate to the UC Clermont College Allied Health Scholarship Fund. The students were also awarded individual trophies following the final round where they triumphed over the team from Morehead State.
The winning team was comprised of Lisa Otten from Union Township, Paul Maloney from Milford, Terri David from New Richmond and Beth Backscheider from Cincinnati.
I have watched this team mature over the last year into very able competitors with a vast knowledge of respiratory care. They stand a very good chance of winning the state title at the Ohio Respiratory Care Conference in August, said Mullarkey.
