The Spike or Victoria College Review, June 1907
Macmillan-Brown Prize
Macmillan-Brown Prize.
We are pleased to be able to announce that this prize was in January last awarded to a student of Victoria College, making five successive years in which the University essay prizes have come to Wellington. This record is one which can be extended, and we sincerely hope that some students will come forward this year to fill the gap created by the incapacity of former winners to compete. The prizes are valuable, the work in interesting, and the competition, limited to undergraduate, is not severs. Let it be possible to say that in literature, as well as in page 81 debating, Victoria College can set a standard which others will find it hard to reach.
