And then there were Seven! 2009 saw the addition of LECOM to WQLN Radio’s scholarly themed Collegiate Challenge fundraiser. This year, please join us in welcoming Pitt Titusville to our friendly and fun competition! This 2010 fundraiser unites our local colleges and universities as well as WQLN Radio with one commonality in mind--to ignite within our communities the thirst for knowledge, culture, discovery and service. And this year, your donation will help make history! Every dollar pledged counts toward our record setting goal—the highest since the inception of the Collegiate Challenge! 7 schools, 11 days, $100,000 to raise—let the games begin!
