Monday Morning Markets/Jobs/Opportunities

"Calling poets! Comment Magazine's second-annual "Making the Most of College" poetry contest runs until July 1st, 2010. The question: How does a 21st-century education lead you to respond to a 19th-century visionary? Write a sonnet which interacts in some way with Percy Bysshe Shelley's "Ozymandias" —a refutation? an update? a round of applause? Imagine the poem afresh for university students 2010-11. Email your submissions to comment(at)cardus(dot)ca by July 1st. First-place winner takes $100 CDN and the page 1 poem in our Fall 2010 print issue. Second- and third-place runners-up also get published later in the Fall Issue. Enter today!" No entry fee indicated. (via ImageUpdate)
