Quiz Writer
Joselyn wasn’t too keen on multiple choice in high school. She vividly remembers the first biology exam she passed by only the skin of her teeth, which dragged her overall average down into the embarrassingly low 90s (she doesn’t want to talk about it). After swearing off any high school or university courses that required multiple choice tests, Joselyn managed to get an English degree by sweet-talking her professors into offering only essay-style exams. Needless to say, this did not exactly endear her to her peers. This rocky start smoothed out in time, though, and after tumbling down a black quiz hole one day while putting off job hunting, Joselyn realized her hatred of all things a-b-or-c had faded and she actually enjoyed dreaming up new ideas for questions and dangerously correct-sounding answers. You won’t find her quizzes an easy ride, but Joselyn just wants to make sure you’re really testing your knowledge.

Meet the AKC
The American Kennel Club is responsible for keeping track of purebred dog breeds. The AKC’s mission is “upholding the integrity” of its registry of dog breeds. Since 1884, the organization has been advocating for purebred dogs and working to advance the study, breeding, exhibiting, running and maintenance of purebred dogs. The AKC today even has a Political Action Committee to interact with state and national government on issues that could impact the well-being of dogs and the rights of responsible dog owners. Nevertheless, you likely know them best for their events. Annually the AKC hosts more than 22,000 dog shows, trials and field events at which dogs can show off their hard work in training and just how beautiful a specimen of the breed they might be. Events can test agility, tracking, scent work, herding, and even the ability of a dog to chase live prey (don’t worry, they use mechanized lures and pulleys).
