DANTE SOCIETY OFFERS ANNUAL ESSAY PRIZE

Members of the University, with the exception of graduate students of more than three year's standing, are eligible to compete for a prize of $100 offered by the Dante Society for the best essay on a subject drawn from the life or works of Dante. Essays in this competition are due on May 1, 1923.

The following rules have been announced: "The title page of each manuscript must bear an assumed name, with a statement of the writer's academic standing, and must be accompanied by a sealed letter, containing his true name and superscribed with his assumed name. Every essay must be neatly and legibly written or typewritten. Essayists are at liberty to write on any one of the subjects which have been proposed in the years during which this prize has been offered, or to propose new subjects for the approval of the Council of the Dante Society".

The judges of the essays are selected from the Dante Society. If the judges decide that no essay submitted to them deserves the full prize, they are at liberty to withhold the prize, or to award one or two $50 prizes, at their discretion. All inquires are to be addressed to Professor C. H. Grandgent '83.
