秋葵视频 senior Christopher Combs, of Fayetteville, N.C., will receive this year鈥檚 Brittany 鈥淎lly鈥� Harbuck Scholarship during a reading and reception Thursday, Sept. 6.听 Award-winning novelist Tina Whittle served as this year鈥檚 scholarship judge and will present the award at 7 p.m. in Room 1005 of the Allen E. Paulson College of Engineering and Information Technology building. The event is free and open to the public. Combs and nine other nominees will read their entries during the ceremony, and members of the Harbuck family will participate in the award presentation. A catered reception will follow the ceremony. Combs鈥� winning submission was a collection of 10 poems he wrote in professor Eric Nelson鈥檚 poetry writing class in spring 2012. The poems reflect a range of subjects, from serious to playful, including 鈥淲hat the Night Dreams,鈥� 鈥淔ifty-two Card Pick-up the Family Pieces鈥� and 鈥淏lank Page Phobia.鈥� “Every time I returned to the pages, I discovered some new facet,鈥� Whittle said of Combs鈥� poems. 鈥淭he exquisite tension they held was never diminished by an easy resolution; indeed this writer possessed Keats鈥� negative capability in spades 鈥� to hold irreconcilable ideas in the palm of the hand and not seek to reconcile them. Moving and beautiful and profound.鈥� The Sept. 6 ceremony will also include readings by Harbuck Scholarship finalists Chad Sanderson and Jackson Sharpe, and award nominees Jennifer Coate, Jennifer Curington, Ryan Evans, Beth Martin, Jamie Morton, Naima Ozier and Jared Sharpe. Combs is the fourth recipient of the scholarship endowed by David and Debi Harbuck of Savannah to honor their daughter, who died in a traffic accident in April 2005. The Harbuck Scholarship supports sophomore, junior and senior writing majors with at least a 3.0 GPA in their writing courses. To be considered for the scholarship, students must be nominated by faculty in the Department of Writing and Linguistics and must submit 10 to 15 pages of fiction, nonfiction or poetry to the Harbuck Scholarship Committee. The committee narrows the list of applicants to three finalists for judging by an outside author. Whittle has published two novels:听The Dangerous Edge of Things听补苍诲听Darker Than Any Shadow. Her fiction has appeared in听Alfred听Hitchcock鈥檚 Mystery Magazine,听The Savannah Literary Journal听补苍诲听Gulf Stream.
