Emerson poetry team takes home first place in national competition

Four Emerson students participated in, and took home a $1,200 first place cash prize from the 2019 VOX Pop Slam Poetry Tournament at Stark Brewing Company in New Hampshire this October. The competition is regarded on a national level, and is judged through both scale ratings and audience reaction. The team included Dessaline Etienne, Jane Cardona, Kayla LaRosa, and Lauren Licona, who all used personal stories, vulnerability, and creative expression to bring them to victory.
