Profile in Courage Essay Contest

Has anyone heard back from the John F. Kennedy Library Foundation regarding the Profile in Courage Essay Contest?

Also curious who everyone else wrote about!

I haven’t heard back. I wrote about Tom Harkin, you?

I haven’t heard back either. I wrote about Art Agnos.

Still nothing. I wrote about Congressmen Scott Peters (CA-52), and his efforts to periscope the house Democratic sit in in June.

Love Tom Harkin! What a great topic @booksforbrains

Thank you! I’m nervous because I know they say by March 31st, but when they said they’d publicly announce the winner they did it before the “by” date last year :confused:

They don’t announce the winners publicly until May 15th, right?

Yea except last year they announced it in April, so that’s why I was wondering if they had already contacted the winners before when they said they would.

I haven’t heard back either. Getting pretty nervous haha

I’m slightly nervous as well, but I don’t have any real chance of being chosen, so I’m not expecting anything.

Do you think it is safe to assume that all finalists/winners have been notified at this point?

Probably. @bibliophile16

@polichick13 It’s really annoying how they don’t publicly announce the winners until May!

Do you guys know about how many people enter the contest? I was kind of surprised I wasn’t even in the top 25…

2000+ enter

Have you received the list of winners? I didn’t receive it in the mail.
