- On Tuesday, January 20, 2009, history will be made with the inauguration of Barack Obama, our first African-American president. With such interest in the presidential election in recent months, one of the subjects we are focusing on in the Academic Bowl is knowing our presidential history. Three-way matches 7, 8, and 9 will ask students to know their group of presidents in order, the exact dates of the terms, how many terms they served, their political party, and major historical events which happened during the time they were president.
