2. Governor-General\u2019s Prize<\/span><\/strong><\/strong><\/h4>\n

The Governor-General\u2019s Prize is now in its tenth year, and, in addition to awarding over $10,000 in prize money each year, it has earned a reputation as the most prestigious essay competition in Australia.<\/p>\n

Every year, the judging panel for the Prize has been chaired by a Justice of the High Court of Australia, and it is a feature of participation in the final round that undergraduates have the opportunity to be interviewed by one of the Justices.<\/p>\n

This year, the Prize has been sponsored by Reconciliation Australia, and all of the essay questions are focussed on issues relating to constitutional recognition of Indigenous Australians. The questions, and further details, including past entries, may be found on the\u00a0website<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Students wishing to enter the Prize are required to submit a 2,500 word essay online by\u00a0Monday 30 June, 2014<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

All finalists will be invited to a cocktail reception at the High Court of Australia in Canberra, with the Justices of the Court and other special guests to celebrate the tenth year of the Prize.<\/p>\n
