accepted to an accredited college. They must be residents of Virginia or children of
Virginia Branch members. Some preference may be given to relatives of members.
Essays must be typed, double-spaced, and contain at least 1,000 words. Footnotes
and a bibliography should be included. On computers, 12 pt.
A good draft submitted by email earlier can receive editorial commentary, if necessary.
