| April 25, 2007: |
Essay contest winner to be announced
|
| Prize: |
$500 scholarship (for Quincy College Courses
Only)
|
| Format: |
Between 750 and 1250 words (three to five double

Page one must include the applicant’s

Type font size must be no larger than 12 points.

|
The essay writer will develop an essay that interprets
the theme by example, personal experience, research, advocacy of the
theme, or by any other method that clearly indicates the intention
of the theme.
Consider these facts:
-
Motor vehicle accidents are the
leading cause of death in the
United States for persons under age 34.
-
All injuries and deaths caused
by drunk driving are preventable.
-
During 2004, there were 476 alcohol-related
traffic deaths in Massachusetts
-
The more you drink, the more likely
you are to have a fatal accident.
Deaths from alcohol-related accidents will not stop
until people stop drinking and driving. The intent of the essay theme
is to make everyone on campus aware of the dangers of drinking and
driving.
Essays are to be placed in the mailbox of Dr.
Edward Kelly in White Hall and will be reviewed by Dr.
Kelly, Professor Steve Dooner and an adjunct professor. Evaluation
criteria includes a clearly stated purpose, adequate development
of the purpose, coherency (focus) and a sound conclusion.
