Student essay earns recognition at Martin Luther King Jr. event

photo of certificate of excellence winnerFeb. 9, 2012—Congratulations to Schalmont Middle School student Nick Parisi for his contribution to Siena College's 25th Annual Martin Luther King Jr. and Coretta Scott King lecture series on race and non-violent social change.

Nick earned a Certificate of Excellence for his essay about MLK's commitment to equal rights and the role of the Public Defender's Office in working for all people, regardless of race or financial means. He also discussed his uncle, Adam Parisi, a Schalmont alumnus who works in the office as a lawyer serving the poor in this capacity.

Nick's piece, along with an array of artwork, essays and poetry from students throughout the Capital Region, was displayed at Siena during a special event honoring MLK in mid January.
