Open to all registered RVCC students, the contest is an opportunity to be awarded $500 for submitting an essay, poem, or photo journalistic piece analyzing or interpreting one of the listed primary sources addressing either The Holocaust, Genocide, or Racism.

Entries will be scored on the basis of understanding of the topic, content of the work, grammar/mechanics or presentation of the work.

All submissions may be emailed or scanned and sent to EssayContest@raritanval.edu. (Questions may also be sent to the same email address.) Three students will be awarded a $500 scholarship for their work.
