Get Your Students Engaged in the 2016 Writing Contest!
The Association of Business Communication student writing contest is open for entries! This year’s case, “What Did IT Say?” challenges students to develop a clear communication strategy and to write effective emails for two very different audiences.
If you have identified a few strong student writer(s) in your class, you can offer them the opportunity to showcase their work by competing against their peers from across the country. Contest winners earn both recognition at the upcoming ABC conference in Albuquerque as well as a cash prize. The deadline for entries is Sunday, April 30 – still plenty of time to participate!

Do you want to get involved in with the writing contest?
First, you can join the committee – just respond to the committee survey and indicate your interest. (The survey is scheduled to close today. If you missed responding, I hope you will message the ABC office right away so you can be added to the recruitment list.)
Second, submit a case! If you have a short case that you think would be great for an upcoming contest, please send it to Kelly Grant. If the committee chooses your case, you will receive recognition at the upcoming conference with a cash award.
