Each year, CLAGS sponsors a student paper competition open to all undergraduate students enrolled in the CUNY or SUNY system. A cash prize is awarded to the best paper written in a CUNY or SUNY undergraduate class. Essays should be between 12 and 30 pages, well-thought-out, and fully realized. Submissions should include a copy of the paper with the author's name, campus affiliation, and the name of the course or instructor for which the paper was written. Applications may be submitted directly through email or through file-transfer sites such as WeTransfer. Files saved on CD are also accepted. Print copies will not be accepted. Please visit the award's website or contact CLAGS for more information.
