Last weekend, Grant S. Quasha '02 became the second Harvard undergraduate in two months to be a contestant on a popular prime-time game show.
Quasha's episode of the show "Greed," taped on Saturday, will be aired on Fox on Friday, June 2 at 9 p.m.
Due to the show's rules, Quasha was not allowed to disclose whether or not he won money on the show.
On April 9, ABC aired an episode of "Who Wants To Be a Millionaire?" on which Richard A. Cooper '01 won $1,000.
"Greed" puts five contestants on the same team and then encourages them to turn against each other through "the Terminator," which offers players the chance to knock each other out of the game and take their money after a one question face-off.
The first question is worth $25,000 for the team to share, and each subsequent question is worth more--going up to $2 million.
Quasha, a government concentrator in Dunster House who is also a Crimson editor, participated in a college-themed taping last weekend. Fox flew 30 college students to Los Angeles on Friday, put them up in a nice hotel and left them to themselves, Quasha said.
The students decided to go out for dinner and drinks together Friday night and to party in one student's hotel room on Saturday, after the taping was over.
