This week’s student news quiz highlights major global and domestic developments, including a 10-day cease-fire between Israel and Lebanon that could ease tensions affecting United States and Iran peace efforts. It also examines President Trump’s recent criticism of a prominent world leader, whom he described as too liberal, weak on crime, and ineffective in foreign policy.

The quiz covers a federal jury’s ruling against Live Nation, the parent company of Ticketmaster, and explores renewed efforts by President Trump to pressure Iran into negotiations after earlier talks failed to halt conflict. In addition, it points to new data on Americans’ religious attitudes, showing notable shifts in belief and affiliation.

Other questions focus on the closure of Hampshire College amid a broader wave of small liberal arts college shutdowns, the renewed attention on a historic arch featured in recent news, and the centennial anniversary of a famed United States geographic landmark.
