With the University of Virginia’s bicentennial just around the corner, now is the time to reflect on the past, share fond memories and try your best to beat your fellow Wahoos in an all-out UVA trivia challenge.

In its nearly 200 years of existence, UVA has borne witness to historic progress, supported some of the greatest scholars of the age and fostered generations of new leaders. That’s a lot of action to pack into a 12-question quiz, so never fear, ’Hoos – today’s brainteaser is just the first in a series that we’ll be sharing throughout the bicentennial celebrations.
