JOURNALISM STUDENTS:

Now is the time to visit the English Dept. Web site and download entry forms
for the annual writing awards. Keep in mind that journalism students have
snatched up both Greer/Hepburn and Montaine wins -- and big dollar$ -- in
recent years and are likely to do well again this year.
\
Note that the entry deadline is now FEB. 23.

Journalism entries require a portfolio of five to 10 published articles and
an essay of 250 words about your growth as a journalistic writer. Entries
should be delivered to the English office, Bachelor 356, by the 23rd.

Get all the details at www.muohio.edu/english. Click on the contest link on
the lefthand column and then open the PDF there for the entry form.

Good luck.

> Dear Colleagues,
>
>          I'm writing to remind you/urge you to encourage your students to
> enter the Department of English Upperclass Awards 2005.    Details for
> submission and eligibility can be found on the department website   (Isn't
> it great to have one), with easy links to a PDF application
> form.   Significant amounts of money are awarded for these awards,
> especially the Greer-Hepburn Senior Prizes, in which first place is
> $4500!    Eligible categories are fiction, poetry, journalism and
> non-fiction.   Work is to be written in an English class above the 100
> level (slightly different rules for journalism entries), but students do
> not have to be our majors.   There are outside judges in each discipline.
>
>          Please note:  Although the website says the deadline to February
> 16th, the deadline has been extended to February 23rd.
>
>          Many thanks.
