Each weekend, thousands of Americans rack their brains to solve the puzzle on National Public Radio’s “Weekend Edition Sunday,” which pits New York Times puzzle-guru Will Shortz against some hapless citizen.
Not last Sunday.
That edition, PCC liberal arts instructor Jefferson Ranck shredded Mr. Shortz, ripping seamlessly through a tough quiz. Host Liane Hansen gushed, “Jefferson, you are amazing!”
This was not news to PCC’s Southeast Center, where Jefferson Ranck is an instructor. Amazing? Check mark.
Want to see if you are as smart as an instructor at Southeast Center?
