WILBERFORCE, Ohio – Wilberforce University sophomore Latyra Stinson represents the University at The Sixth Annual Ford Black College Quiz Game Show, airing this Saturday in Dayton on WDTN Channel 2.

The show, taped at Howard University in Washington, D.C., features contestants from a dozen historically-black colleges and universities across the nation. Participants compete for scholarship money and prizes.

Stinson, of Cincinnati, was invited to take part in the program. “I said, ‘Yes, I’m ready. I want to do this,’” she said. “It was a great experience. I learned I can be confident and a little less shy.” The Wilberforce sophomore plans a career in health care and may pursue nursing school following graduation.
