Ken Jennings has recently been named the “Greatest of All Time” title on the United States television programme “Jeopardy!” With another victory in hand, he’s easily one of the most recognizable figures on American primetime and an extraordinary ambassador for the critical fields of geographic & global education; just ask the over fourteen million viewers of the final show, or the readers of his hit book, Maphead.
The IAYG Family wishes a special congratulations to Ken Jennings, who has generously contributed questions in his free time to the IAYG Question of the Week feature from July 2018 up until now. The unique online programme was inaugurated by IAYG President Phillip Meng and Communications Representative Jaimie Ding in 2018 and later managed by Global Director of Programme Development Rishi Gorrepati. We plan to move features with past questions to a new home at iaygfamily.org/qotw, and invite all visitors to try their hand at Ken’s tough geography questions.
