Recently got word from Diana at APALC about API FLAG's (Asian Pacific Islander Parents & Friends of Lesbians and Gays) "Think, Write, Win: Choose Love" College Scholarship Essay Challenge, an opportunity for API voices to speak out about love and why they support gay marriage.
It's a challenge to all graduating college-bound high school seniors and
returning undergraduates: write a sharp, well-argued essay in favor of same-sex marriage and win a college scholarships split between an English language category and a Chinese/Korean language category. Total prize winnings are more than $5,000.
The contest is open to all students who permanently reside in Los Angeles and Orange Counties. For rules and more information about the contest, go to the API PFLAG blog here, and read the full press release here.
