Okay, folks, let’s get this show on the road! I’ve sorted the entries for the academic haiku contest into four broad categories to keep this manageable, so after finding a winner in each field, we’ll have a run-off for the overall best haiku of the bunch.* Polls in this first round will be open through 11:59 PM EST, Monday, February 26.
I ask that you vote just once per category, but please do vote in all four. Here they are:
Humanities
Physical science
Social science
Tech/computers/internet
*There were a few submissions that didn’t really summarize research or adhere to the rules, so to keep the polls a reasonable size I kept these poems out of the contest…doesn’t mean they weren’t great!
