Intersection Quasi-Orderings: An Alternative Proof

This note provides an alternative proof of a known result on the existence of collections of orderings generating intersection quasi-orderings. Instead of proving the result from first principles, it is illustrated how it can be obtained by making use of an analogous relationship between partial orders and linear orders.
