Eleven teams of faculty and students will compete for $1,000 prizes in the John G. Rangos Sr. Prizes Pitch Competition Tuesday, Feb. 25, from 3 to 5 p.m. in the Power Center Ballroom. The event is open to the campus community, and a list of participating teams can be viewed on the Rangos Prizes website.
The competition was designed to inspire students and faculty to enhance Duquesne’s curriculum, ensuring that it remains relevant and prepares students for productive futures.
Students and faculty will have four minutes to present their ideas before a panel of judges, and event attendees will have the opportunity to provide comments via an online survey throughout the event. Feedback from judges and event attendees will be compiled for consideration, and winners of the 2020 John G. Rangos Sr. Prizes will be announced in March.
A reception in the Shepperson Suite will immediately follow the presentations. RSVPs are appreciated, but not required.
