The competition honors librarian Maria Dittman, who served the MU community for over 25 years and was responsible for teaching thousands of students library research skills.

The Research Paper Competition awards $200 prizes in each of three categories:  freshman-sophomore, junior-senior, and graduate-professional.  Prizes are awarded annually each April.
