RULES AND CRITERIA
Students are permitted to submit one entry for The Fountainhead per year.
Essays must be 800-1600 words in length and written in English only.
Essays must be solely the work of the entrant. Plagiarism will result in disqualification.
Essays will be judged on whether the student is able to argue for and justify his or her view—not on whether the Institute agrees with the view the student expresses. Judges will look for writing that is clear, articulate and logically organized. Winning essays must demonstrate an outstanding grasp of the philosophical meaning of The Fountainhead.
