Williams student Yasick Nemenov '16 was a 2014 finalist for the William Sloane Coffin Prize for his speech "On the Protests in Ukraine." The Williams College Chaplains' Office and the First Congregational Church of Williamstown, Mass. established the Coffin Prize in 2011. The competition honors The Rev. William Sloane Coffin, Jr. (more on his life at http://bit.ly/GUro5H), by giving Williams students an opportunity to articulate some of their most passionately held convictions in public discourse—in the hope of calling forth new voices for a new time in urgent need of new leadership, inspirational activism, and fresh faith.
