LWU Education Majors stage an Amazing Race By Duane Bonifer Lindsey Wilson University education students used a popular American reality competition TV show on Thursday, March 19, 2026, to review how to be an effective teacher of poetry. Five teams of students in education professor Jennifer Antoniotti-Neal's "Children's Literature" class staged a variation of The Amazing Race in the afternoon. Just as the reality show that has been broadcast for nearly a quarter century by CBS, the Lindsey Wilson student teams competed against one another by seeing who could successfully navigate a course in the shortest amount of time. In the Lindsey Wilson version, the student teams visited five stations scattered through the A.P. White Campus. At each station, they had to overcome obstacles, perform a task and answer questions en route to a grand prize. Each team also designed one station. "They had to wear two hats," said Antoniotti-Neal '98, who is also director of the education program. "They had to wear their teacher's hat, and they had to wear their student's hat."
