The nine questions cover a broad range of topics including constitutional matters, protection of the freedom of speech, Australian citizenship and religious practices and topical political and economic issues.
The competition is now in its sixth year and has awarded generous cash prizes to finalists in past years. Prize monies awarded each year are dependent on the sponsorship received annually for the competition. Essay responses are to be 2,500 words in length. The competition is open to Australian undergraduate students studying in all faculties at universities across Australia for all or part of 2009. The closing date of the competition is Monday, 14 December 2009, 5:00pm AEST.
Every year the competition is judged by a panel of distinguished individuals including High Court Justices and prominent academics. This prestigious competition provides students with the opportunity to be further recognised for their academic skill, talent and research.
