Dever Prize for Freshman Writing鈥攆or the best essay written by a freshman in any English Course.

• First Place:聽Patrick McBee聽for his essay "Patty Creek"
  Nominated By Randy Bustamante, who writes: "Patrick deftly demonstrates the interplay of memory and imagination (cf. Patricia Hampl) in this personal narrative. The artful structure conveys the grand but not overblown theme very well, resulting in a meditation that feels precociously insightful and yet genuine and well-earned."
• Second Place:聽Emma McGowan聽"All in the Essence of Time"
  Nominated by Elizabeth Graver, who writes: 鈥淎ll in the Essence of Time,鈥� on Kate Chopin's "The Story of an Hour" strikes me as a noteworthy example of a close reading essay. Emma's prose is at once lucid and elegant. She constructs an argument that allows the tensions and contradictions in the story to emerge beautifully, and she shines light on its central concerns, both formally and in terms of its subject matter. Several of her observations opened up this story (which I have read numerous times) in new and revelatory ways for me."
• Third Place:聽Yeram Choi聽"An Activist In Search of a Voice"
  Nominated by Instructor Jessa Kirk, who writes: "This paper was born of an interview assignment. The act of profiling another student was by far the most challenging paper for my class to write, but Yeram embraced the challenge and created this affecting portrait of another 情色空间 freshman. Yeram's other writing鈥攃reative and academic鈥攊s all of a high quality. She will go far."
