ACM Nick Adams Short Story Contest Winner, 2002
Benjamin Jacobson, a junior English major, has been named the winner of the 30th annual ACM Nick Adams Short Story Contest. Ben's story, "Faculty Brat," was selected from more than 40 stories submitted by students from ACM colleges. Professors Shawn Gillen of Beloit College and Ross Vander Meulen of Knox College served as initial faculty readers for the contest, selecting the six finalists from which the final judge made his choice. Stephen Raleigh Byler, author of Searching for Intruders: A Novel in Stories, served as the final judge for the contest this year, which carries with it a first prize of $1,000, made possible through a generous gift from an anonymous donor.
The winning story is available on the ACM website.
