Spring 2023 Freshman "Mason Reads" Essay Competition

We are pleased to announce the “Mason Reads” Essay Competition at Mason Korea for the Spring 2023 semester.

The purpose of the “Mason Reads” Essay Competition is to promote the values and learning outcomes of the “Mason Reads” program as well as to provide an audience for first-year student writers. Since the “Mason Reads” selected book is provided to all Mason Korea first-year students, everyone has an equal chance to participate regardless of their major or prior knowledge on any subject. The book for the 2022-2023 academic year is Cho Nam-Joo's international bestseller, Kim Jiyoung, Born 1982. Students who have not received a copy of the book may pick one up from the office of Academic Affairs. Student essays may be any combination of expository, argumentative, persuasive, or narrative in style.

Please take a look at the competition prompt for full details. If you have any questions about the competition, don't hesitate to contact Professor Kifer (jkifer@gmu.edu).
