December 24, 2012
Kerr graduate Timothy Callo was in “Jeopardy!” in October, appearing on the television quiz show.
Callo, a 2004 graduate, competed on the show aired Oct. 22 on KHOU 11.
Jeopardy! does not follow the typical question-and-answer format of a quiz show; the contestants must provide a question to either an answer or a clue. The topics range from sciences and wordplay to pop culture.
On this episode of Jeopardy!, two other contestants played against him: Betsy Chisolm, a volunteer storyteller and Glenn Fleishman, a technology specialist and returning Jeopardy champion. Callo earned $1,000 during his Jeopardy experience.
After he graduated from Kerr, Callo attended University of Houston and is now a manufacturing engineer.
