Via Betsy's Page, here's where you can go to take that civics and history quiz that's behind the recent headlines bemoaning what college students know about America.
Betsy has some quibbles about the quiz, and so do I (on the whole my quibbles are different from hers, by the way), but I'll leave it to you to decide for yourself how fair a job the quizmakers did when setting up this survey.
If you're wondering, I got 52 right out of 60, which put me well ahead of the average so far for September, but well behind what I was aiming for.
