Admissions Counselor Brandon Williamson, ’07, was voted Best Poet of the Month in October, as judged at a Poetry Slam in downtown Toronto. He has also been invited to be a guest on a radio show, “Nik Beat,” that broadcasts throughout Toronto and worldwide online on the topic of spoken word. In addition, his Pure Ink Poetry Slam team traveled to Rochester and performed at the Empire State Team Poetry Slam, earning first place honors in the statewide competition. Shortly thereafter, Pure Ink became the first American team to ever win the Q.E.W. International Poetry Slam held at the Burlington Performing Arts Center in Bulrington, Ont. in early January.
