' The questions were put up all around campus. After answering the questions, participants submitted their answers to ASG. To help moti vate students to enter the contest, BSU convinced two businesses to donate gift certificates as prizes. “There was a $50 gift certificate to Outback, and a $25 gift certificate to Starbucks,” Sociology Instructor Kristin Christopherson, who has worked with the BSU on this and other projects^ said. “We thought [if students] were only participat ing in the [contest] for the payoff [they were] stilTgoing.to learn some thing.” The group of students who start ed out in the fall as being a part of the BSU were talking about a lot of ways to both increase the visibil ity of black students on campus as well as ... contribute to the campus community,” Christopherson said in reference to the motive behind the contest. There was another important rea son for the contest as well. “the objective of having the [con test] was also to provoke thought,” according to Martinez “The importance ... of the black history [contest] was to show the diversity of black culture ... our black students here on campus come from a wide [range] of cultures and experiences that don’t repre sent just one homogenous group,” Christopherson stressed. “The [contest] wasn’t simply out there to celebrate Black History Month for black Americans on cam pus, but for the entire campus com munity ... it enriches us to know who and what we are a part of in this country,” Martinez said.
