With the conclusion of the Provost’s Diversity Research Forum on January 31, this year’s Diversity Writing Contest has also drawn to a close. Once again, the writing contest attracted a number of excellent submissions from UVic students. Our winning entries touched on topics like mental health, transgender matters, and the international student experience – in short, a true diversity of experience. The Libraries’ webpage for the Diversity Writing Contest has been updated. You can read the winning entries at http://library.uvic.ca/events/writingcontest along with a brief biography of the student authors.
