THE LITERARY COMPETITION

Details are found in the attachment 2006LiteraryCompetition.pdf

The Society typically wins the majority of the awards from the Literary Competition. In 2003, 100% of the awards went to Society Chapters. However, in 2004, the Fraternity rallied and beat us 7 to 4, winning the Grand Prize for the first time in several years. There are numerous cash prizes, including the $1000 grand prize. Let’s continue to have a strong showing. The deadline for submissions is May 15th. All submissions must be electronic: either via email or on a CD-ROM mailed to HQ. Please refer to 2006LiteraryCompetition.pdf for details.
