TWO SAC ASCENDER STUDENTS WIN SCHOLARSHIP COMPETITION

SAC Ascender Psychology students, Cynthia Bennet and Shonda Bryce, each won a $500 scholarship for their entries in the poster and essay scholarship competition at the 3rd Annual Library Common Read. The San Antonio College Library hosted the event with the book Tell Me Who You Are by Priya Vulchi & Winona Guo. The event provided a shared experience for students by bringing the campus community together to attend various events and talk about racial literacy (It's not just talking about a book). There was intellectual and community engagement where students were part of a campus-wide dialogue and witnessed civility in action.  They were able to hear and explore different views and experiences, practice radical listening, and articulate their story.
