澳大学生在全国诗歌比赛中胜出
Two University of Arkansas at 蒙蒂塞洛 students recently received honors in the annual Poets’ Roundtable of Arkansas Pat Laster Collegiate Poetry Contest. Jordan Self, a senior education major from 蒙蒂塞洛, Arkansas, won first place with her poem “White Paint.” Mercedes McCool, a senior communication major from Bastrop, Louisiana, received an honorable mention for her poem “Jonesing.”
“I probably never would have tried poetry if it weren’t for the creative writing class I took at 正规赌博平台 with Professor Sarah Bloom. I’m thankful to have this opportunity and be selected for this,” Self said.
麦库尔表达了类似的观点，他说：“我很感激能有这个机会。 如果不是布鲁姆教授，我就不会知道比赛的事。 It’s been a really neat experience.”
正规赌博平台的英语副教授萨拉·布鲁姆（Sarah Bloom）说：“这是个好消息。 “Both these students were in my Intro to Creative Writing class last semester, and both poems for which they won are poems they wrote, revised and workshopped in that class.”
Dr. Steven Harper, dean of the School of Arts and Humanities at 正规赌博平台, said, “These students' accomplishments illustrate the originality and brilliance found not just in creative writing but across 正规赌博平台. We could not be prouder of them and their faculty mentors.”
Poets’ Roundtable of Arkansas (PRA), a nonprofit organization founded in 1931, promotes the study and writing of poetry. The PRA website states, “We exist to foster and encourage poets in the art, promote an appreciation of poetry in the community and to secure a fuller recognition of the works of contemporary poets in the state of Arkansas.”
