Our Salem County neighbor DuPont has announced topics for this year's
DuPont Challenge, an essay contest they sponsor for high school students all around the country. Students have to write a 700 - 1000 word essay about one of
four topics:
- Together, we can feed the world.
- Together, we can build a secure energy future.
- Together, we can protect people and the environment.
- Together, we can be innovative anywhere.
In class during our science article reviews we often talk about these four topics, and you can use information you've learned in school and by reading science articles to help in your writing. If you are interested in submitting an essay you can check out the
official rules and start putting together ideas for this project.
Oh, and did I mention there are
prizes? First place winner gets a $5,000 savings bond and an all expenses paid trip to Orlando, Fl. There are also prizes for runners up.
Entries can be submitted starting November 15 and ending January 31, 2014.
