Funded by a URECA grant from Tennessee Tech, these writers and their creative writing professors traveled to Mississippi University for Women in Columbus, MS, so that the students could present their work. The Southern Literary Festival was first held in 1937, and past winners of undergraduate prizes include Flannery O’Connor and Eudora Welty. Congratulations to our English majors for representing writing excellence at Tech!
