Earn prizes through the English Department‘s Magnetic Poetry Contest early in the school year! All Detroit Mercy students, staff, faculty and administrators are encouraged to create an original poem using the magnets on the second-floor lockers of the Briggs Building.
The deadline to submit an image of your finished poem is Friday, Sept. 13. Winning students will receive cash prizes — $75 and a magnetic poetry kit for first place, $50 for second place and $25 for third place. Winning employees will receive much glory.
Please be sure to submit an image of your poem that is vertically oriented. Each individual may submit a maximum of three poems.
For more information on the contest, and to submit your poem, view the entry form here.
