Trivia TuesdayWelcome to the second edition of Early Bird Trivia Tuesday!   

Each Tuesday through May 9, the Early Bird will publish a short news quiz based on the previous week’s articles and University news. One faculty member, staff member or student employee who answers all five trivia questions correctly will be chosen at random to win a prize package that includes five free-parking passes and select Metropolitan State University of Denver swag.  

Put your knowledge to the test before the weekly cutoff of Thursday at 11:59 p.m., then tune in the following Tuesday to meet the winner and participate in the next round. Best of luck!  

Meet Week No. 1 Winner 

Week No. 1 of the Early Bird’s Trivia Tuesday series saw 85 perfect scores. The inaugural winner, selected via random generator, is Tana Ridgeway! 

Ridgeway is an MSU Denver alumna who earned a bachelor’s degree in Environmental Science. She has served the University in a variety of roles, including as an undergraduate research student, Supplemental Instruction leader, administrative-office lead, orientation leader, peer mentor and now a Colorado Opportunity Scholarship Initiative Re-Engagement Navigator. She joined the University in this permanent role in 2022 and says the best part of working at MSU Denver is the care her team puts into its work. She reads the Early Bird to stay up to date with what’s going on at the University and was even featured in a RED story on the Finish What You Started Program. Congratulations, Tana! Thanks for reading the Early Bird and for being an integral part of our campus community.
