From its inception the T-Room was a popular hang out for Engineering students, as well as those attending neighbouring Dalhousie University.

The provincial government forced TUNS to amalgamate with Dalhousie University in April 1997.

For several years the former TUNS faculties formed a college called Dalhousie University Polytechnic (nicknamed DalTech) but in 2001 the college structure was dissolved and the faculties simply became part of Dalhousie University.

A student from PEI, where pub quizzes are very popular, spoke with the T-Room management and they agreed to start trivia to aid in Friday night sales.

The event was a celebration of the intense competition that regularly occurred at the back of the bar on the pool tables.
