Contest location: York University
Date: Monday, May 10, 2004.
The format of this contest was inclusive: it was a showcase of various talents of Italian students in poetry and prose, public speaking and artistic interpretation. From the thirteen schools, 95 students participated, giving us an opportunity to read, see and hear their submissions.
We warmly congratulate all the winners and participants in this year’s contest. Kudos also to the organizing committee, the judges, the sponsors and all the friends of Italian at York University.
