THE HOEPFNER AWARDS
The Theodore Christian Hoepfner Awards were established to honor a colorful scholar of the Auburn University English Department in residence here from 1941 until his death in 1966. They are given each year to the best essay, story, and poem published in the previous volume. In other words, they are not a contest to be entered, but an award made for work already accepted and published through the regular submission process. They are announced in the Editors' Comments of Winter issues.
