Belk College students named 2013 “Insurance Jeopardy” champions

Students in the Belk College’s undergraduate program in risk management and insurance recently competed in the annual “Insurance Jeopardy” program versus Appalachian State University and earned the title of 2013 “Insurance Jeopardy” champions.

The annual game show format event is sponsored by the North Carolina Surplus Lines Association, its members, and the Richard S. Brantley Risk and Insurance Center at Appalachian State University.

Insurance Jeopardy consists of two separate rounds of Jeopardy-style questions covering a broad spectrum of topics on risk management, insurance, surplus lines and international insurance. The Belk College’s RMI students defeated East Carolina University and went onto to win the final round against Appalachian State University for the 2013 title.

Information on the Risk Management and Insurance concentration is available at belkcollege.charlotte.edu/rmi.
