High School Cuban Essay ContestThe High School Cuban Essay Contest (HSCEC) provides high school seniors with an opportunity to gain experience in college level writing while raising awareness of past, present, and future U.S.-Cuba relations.
Suggested essay topics include the U.S.-Cuba relationship, cross-cultural differences and similarities, Cuba’s major industries and Cuba’s relationship with other countries. Essays relating to any discipline are welcome (e.g. business, art, music, sciences, international trade and political science, among others).
Both undergraduate students and professors at Ohio Northern University blind review the HSCEC papers to determine which students will receive the top prizes. First prize is a $1000 scholarship if the student applies, is accepted, and enrolls at Ohio Northern University.
The Cuba Center congratulates the 2007 winner, Courtney Porter of Canfield High School. Courtney has enrolled in Ohio Northern's Raabe College of Pharmacy as a P-1.
