Atlas Shrugged Essay Contest

Sunday, August 23rd, 2009

Description:

Many scholarships require you to write an essay.  This one is a no different.  However, it also requires some reading.  But it pays well.

Interested students just need to read the novel Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand and write an essay response to one of three prompts for a chance at up to $10,000 in scholarship money.  There’s one catch: the novel is nearly 1200 pages long, so you’d better get started.

Essays will be judged on both style and content. Judges will look for writing that is clear, articulate and logically organized. Winning essays must demonstrate an outstanding grasp of the philosophic meaning of Atlas Shrugged.

Prize:

1 first prize: $10,000

3 second prizes: $2,000

5 third prizes: $1,000

20 finalists: $100

20 semifinalists: $50
