Poets and Songwriters Get Prizes
UCBA has announced the winners of the 2015 Poetry and Songwriting Contest, which included categories for area high school students.
The winners were recognized at the Annual UCBA Poetry Café, a special event that was held on the college campus on March 23. Many of the winning students took advantage of the opportunity to provide a reading of their work or perform their song.
