Open Call for Penn Bowl 2023 Editors

Post by sakanak »

This is an open call for editors, including the head editor position, for Penn Bowl 2023, which will be played in late October. The set coordinator will be Vishal Kanigicherla, assisted by Talia Coopersmith and Alex Moon. This post will be updated to reflect filled editor positions.

We are looking for editors for all subjects, maintaining our set distribution and difficulty from last year:

Editors Wanted!
4/4 Literature (1/1 American, 1/1 British, 1/1 European, 1/1 World)
4/4 History (1/1 American, 1/1 European, 1/1 Other, 1/1 World)
4/4 Science (1/1 Biology, 1/1 Chemistry, 1/1 Physics, 1/1 Other)
3/3 Arts (1/1 Classical Music and Opera, 1/1 Painting and Sculpture, 1/1 Other)

1/1 Philosophy

Editors Confirmed:
1/1 Religion (Benjamin McAvoy-Bickford)
1/1 Geography, CE, Pop Culture, and Miscellaneous (Editing by Talia Coopersmith and Benjamin McAvoy-Bickford)

Expectations:

There will be 14 packets of Penn Bowl, with the 15th being tiebreaker questions. Editing 1/1 means a total of 15/15. Please note that Penn Bowl editors are expected to do the bulk of the writing for their categories.

Application Process:

If you are interested in these positions, please fill out this form here by Tuesday, 3/21. Please submit at least 1/1 (one tossup one bonus) that are a similar difficulty to past Penn Bowl questions as part of your application. If you have any questions, you can reach us at [email protected]. We look forward to reading your applications!
