2019 All Bonaventure Reads Essay Winners

Congratulations to the winners of the Provost's Essay Contest, held in conjunction with All Bonaventure Reads 2019-20. As their first official college assignment, members of St. Bonaventure's Class of 2023 were asked to read this year's All Bonaventure Reads selection, “Dear America: Notes of an Undocumented Citizen” and then write a reflection on it. The top 10 essays were chosen to be published in a hardcover keepsake book for each student, and a copy was provided to ABR author Jose Antonio Vargas. The essay winners are pictured above with Provost and VP for Academic Affairs Dr. Joseph Zimmer. Click on the students’ names below to read their winning essays.
