More than 200 students from area junior and senior high schools competed in the regional competition of History Day at Westminster College April 6.
With a theme of "Exploration, Encounter and Exchange in History" students entered one of 13 categories: individual or group exhibits, individual or group performance, individual or group documentary, or individual paper.
Those placing first or second in any category advance to the state contest, May 12-13 at Penn State University. Winners of that contest go on to the national contest at the University of Maryland in June.
For more information, contact Dr. David Twining, associate professor of history of regional coordinator of the event, at (724) 946-6246 or e-mail twinindc@westminster.edu.
