The symposium and accompanying West Texas Journal of History are made possible through a generous endowment by Paula and Jim Henry. 

 

History & Government Honors Student Poster Presentations

Each year, the West Texas Symposium of History invites honors students in both history and government at Midland College to participate in poster presentations. These posters are an opportunity for MC students to showcase their research skills and pursue their academic interests as they gain a deeper understanding of various political and historical topics. In addition to the physical projects that these students create, they must have a conversational knowledge about their topic, discussing it with MC professors, students, and community members.

This year’s prizes are as follows:
1st place - $300.00
2nd place - $200.00
3rd place - $100.00
Honorable Mention - $50.00
