Jeopardy! to offer free student tickets, auditions for show

Attention all students interested in attending or auditioning for the 2008 Jeopardy! College Championship.  

A limited number of free UW-Madison student, faculty and staff tickets will be distributed Tuesday for the College Championship taping at the Kohl Center in April. 

Tickets for the two-day tapings will be available on a first-come, first-served basis from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Red Gym's Campus Information Center. A valid UW-Madison ID is required to pick up tickets, which are limited to four per person. 

We hope to see you all there at the Kohl Center on April 11 and 12, when Jeopardy! comes to Madison,"" Jeopardy! host Alex Trebek said in an online video. 

Interested full-time undergraduate students can also audition to compete in the contest. 

At a Jeopardy! Brain Bus event April 3 at Memorial Union, students will have the chance to win prizes and meet the Clue Crew, and the first 1,000 students will be eligible to take the show's pre-test. A valid UW-Madison ID is also required for the audition. 

Ultimately, 15 college students from around the country will compete for the grand prize of $100,000. UW-Madison is the ninth campus to host the college championship.
