Description

The Wordsmith Awards highlight the most notable writing by students in the First Year Writing Program. These writings are published annually by The University of Tampa's Saunders Writing Center. The staff of the Saunders Writing Center collects works during the fall and spring semesters from First Year Writing students. The published entries are chosen by the tutors during a blind review. Using a rubric, essays are judged on mechanics, style, and content. The winning submissions are then reviewed by the editors and the authors, with strong attention being paid to detail. Finally, these works are published and the authors are recognized at the University of Tampa's Academic Awards Ceremony.
