School of Social Work Holding Atlas Week Writing Contest

02/11/2020

As part of an Atlas Week event, “Hear Our Voices: Immigrant Stories from St. Louis and Beyond,” the School of Social Work is hosting a writing submission drive and contest seeking student stories about immigration.

Inspired by the immigrant stories published by the International Institute of St. Louis, the writing contest is a key component of the event, and is an opportunity for SLU students can share their immigration story or a story that is important to them.

About the Contest

• Students may submit original work in any format to enter.
• The winner will receive a $100 gift card to a local immigrant-owned business and will present their work at the Atlas Week event.
• The top three submissions will be published in the School of Social Work newsletter and on the school’s google site.
