So I know you all saw this and want to yell holler and throw confetti on Olivia's behalf

A proud congratulations goes out to our Mills College undergraduates who won prizes in the Ina Coolbrith Memorial Poetry Contest: Claire Bresnahan, who won first place, and Olivia Mertz, second place!

This award is administered by UC-Berkeley and the competition includes undergraduates from all our neighboring and California college and universities--including UCLA,  St. Mary's, Santa Clara, UC Berkeley, among others.   It is a big deal! Congratulations, Claire and Olivia!
