Edison State Students
Recognized for Peace Essays
At a time of discord in the nation, Edison State Community College
continues to encourage its students to write essays in which they
explore their personal challenges in coming to peace and reconciliation
with obstacles they have faced.
Held in conjunction with the annual Dayton Literary Peace Prize
celebration of the end of the war in Bosnia in 1995, Edison State
student writers this year have explored a variety of topics ranging
from immigration to America to family conflicts to suicide.
Edison State Professor William Loudermilk indicates, “Judging was
difficult as so many fine essays were submitted. After much
consideration, the following students were selected: First place, Mitch
Bolin; second place, Matthew Farrier; and third place, Heidi Bundy.”
Bolin, 32, of Piqua, is the father of a four-year-old son and is an
integration lab technician at Emerson. He is majoring
electro-mechanical engineering.

Edison State and is a junior at Ansonia High School. He plays a variety
of position on the varsity basketball team at the high school but plays
“primarily point guard.”
Third place winner Bundy, 23, is from Sidney and is taking
prerequisites and plans to seek admission to the Registered Nursing
