The Mahan Freshman Essay Award
The Mahan Freshman Essay Award is a competition for first-year students enrolled in English 1000 for WS/FS 2007 and WS 2008. No restrictions on subject matter or length of paper apply. A $200 first prize and a $100 second prize will be awarded at an English Department awards ceremony in early May 2008.

Submit clean-copy papers to the Composition Office, 107 Tate Hall. Include ID# and contact information for the student writer, semester English 1000 was taken, instructor, and--importantly--a corresponding assignment sheet.

Students probably serve their best interests by submitting a *single* first-rate paper.

No papers will be returned and only winners will be notified.

DUE DATE: Friday, April 18, 2008
