Creative Writing Winners   Ever since the 1970's, Argonauts of every class have been able to unite and celebrate the beauty of written word. This year was no exception. With well over 150 entries in five categories: poetry, place description, autobiographical incident, character sketch, and short story, the English Department had a lot to consider when judging the competition.
