Recently Penn held its 76th Alumni Award of Merit presentation. A few years ago--thanks for the hard work of Sheila Raman and others--the university decided to give an annual "Creative Spirit Award" as part of this ceremony. This year poet C. K. Williams (Penn '59) won and our own Gregory Djanikian--poet and director of the Creative Writing Program--gave the introduction. Click here for a video of Greg's intro and C. K. Williams's acceptance, which includes the reading of a poem.
