Will our students turn out to be complete trivia boffins or will our lecturers know more about Beyonce than Barthes when they are contested against each other in the new series of Radio Four’s  3^rd Degree Quiz.  

Listen in on Monday 19^th March at 3pm or if you miss that date it’s repeated on Saturday 24^th March at 11pm.

"The 3rd Degree" is a funny, lively and dynamic quiz show aimed at cultivating the next generation of Radio 4 listeners whilst delighting the current ones. It's recorded on location at a different University each week, and it pits three Undergraduates against three of their Professors in a genuinely original and fresh take on an academic quiz. Being a Radio 4 programme, it meets the most stringent standards of academic rigour - but with lots of facts and jokes thrown in for good measure.
