IWF ANNOUNCES 2009-2010 ESSAY CONTEST

Thirteen Cash Prizes will be Awarded and First Place Winner Claims $5000

Washington, D.C.-The Independent Women’s Forum’s R. Gaull Silberman Center for Collegiate Studies is proud to announce its fifth annual college essay contest. College women enrolled in any four-year college or university worldwide during the 2009-2010 school year are invited to enter this competition. Deadline is December 1, 2009.

This year, students are asked to answer this question in 750 words or less:

Many campus coffee shops boast that they “proudly serve fair trade coffee,” but does the fair trade movement actually make a difference in the lives of the poor and disadvantaged? Is free trade also fair trade?

To date, IWF has awarded more than $40,000 in prize money to students through its essay contest. This contest is an excellent opportunity for students to think critically about the most important issues facing our country and to have the opportunity to win valuable financial assistance for their education in the process. “In addition to over $10,000 in prize money, applicants have the chance to get their writing in front of an all-star panel with some of the best writers in the country including Kimberley Strassel and Melanie Kirkpatrick of The Wall Street Journal, and best-selling author Myrna Blyth,” said Tatiana Posada, director of the Silberman Center.

For the 2009-2010 application visit www.iwf.org.

For Immediate Release

College Republicans Statewide Unite for 9/11 Never Forget Remembrance

Phoenix, AZ – College Republicans across Arizona have united at universities and colleges for a 9/11 Never Forget Remembrance in honor of those who passed away in the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 and those still fighting for our freedoms bravely across seas. 

Andrew Clark, state Chairman of the Arizona Federation of College Republicans stated, “As College Republicans, we have a duty to remember those men and women who have paid the ultimate price of freedom.  We are privileged to lead an effort around the state to ensure that time will never destroy the memory of these patriots.” In order to do this, each college will be displaying American flags representative of every victim lost in the terrorist attacks in a way that is unique to that campus. 

Listed below are the times and locations of the memorial gatherings:  

Arizona State University Tempe: all day at the Memorial Union there will be a silent remembrance planted around the Memorial Union.

Arizona State University West: 10:00am on ASU West’s Fletcher Lawn with speakers Governor Jan Brewer, Representative Sam Crump, Representative Jim Wiers, Radio host Mike Broomhead, Mike McAvoy, a citizen present in New York at the time of the attacks, and student body President Andrew Clark.

Mesa Community College: Will be accepting donations Tuesday-Thursday 10am-2pm outside the clock tower and the flags will be displayed on 9/11 with a moment of silence on that day at 9:11am. Donation proceeds will go to the Families of Freedom Fund.

Northern Arizona University: 10:30am on the grass field west of the Dubois Center, South of the Business Building with the Flagstaff Mayor Sara Presler-Hoefle as their speaker. At 9:11pm there will be a candlelight vigil in the same area.

Paradise Valley Community College: The planting of the American flags will start on September 10th and be taken down September 14th. Speakers scheduled for September 11, from 3-5pm in the courtyard are: Representative Sam Crump, Jim Deakin, Dr. Paul Dale and Debra Brimhall Pearson.

University of Arizona: 6:30-8:00pm at Clements Park (8155 Poincianna) with speakers Hon. Frank Antenori, Gen. Robert Johnson, Lt. Col Scott Campbell, and Sgt. Robert Shirley with music to honor.

“From the pine trees of Flagstaff to the Sonora of Tucson and throughout the valley, the College Republicans will proudly stand beside flags and fellow patriots.  We thank the Governor and many other politicians who stand besides us in this sacred cause,” Clark stated.

About Arizona Federation of College Republicans: We are an organization leading the next generation of conservative minds, thinkers and leaders across the state.
