Essays written during the 2012-2013 academic year qualify for this contest. Please attach one entry form to each submission. Each submission needs to contain two copies of your essay. Do not include your name or any other personal identification information on your submission. We will randomize your submissions and coordinate them with this form. Judges will only see the unidentified essays. You may enter two submissions, but they must fall within the same category and must have separate cover forms. Entries will be collected at the Writing Center. The four $100 prize winners will be notified in April 2013.
