Bunoan, Villarreal tie in Sociology essay competition
"What is the Relevance of Sociology in Today's Society". That was the question posed in the First Annual Sociological Essay Contest. Not an easy question to answer for many, but 18 brave students did their best to express their views in the recent essay contest. The First place winners were James Bunoan with his essay entitled "I'm a Revlon Spam Queen," and Gabriel Villarreal with his untitled essay. Michael Chen won the second place spot with "The Making of the Cashmere
Carpet". • , ;: Winners were announced at the Sociology Club meeting yesterday to a. packed house. The plan was to present three top awards: First, second, and third, but the de-, cision was obviously j tough one, because they awarded two first place winners with $75 each and one second place award.
