Vol State’s Annual Story Slam Brings Laughter, Tears, and Memorable Stories to All

In case you missed it, Vol State held its annual Story Slam, or Public Speaking Story Contest, this past Tuesday! First, I would like to congratulate the winners Xavier Brown (1st Place), Paige Pardue (2nd Place), and Stephanie Edison (3rd Place) for sharing their amazing stories. 

There were stories that made us laugh, cry, and, overall, have a lovely time. Each participant brought something unique to the stage, making the event both entertaining and memorable for everyone in attendance. Events like these are a unique way for students to express themselves, build confidence, and share their experiences with others. 

If you would like to learn more about future contests or similar events, you can reach out to Professor Sheri Waltz at sheri.waltz@volstate.edu. 

Professor Sheri Waltz organized and led this year’s Story Slam, and I can personally say she did a wonderful job! I have her for Public Speaking, and she is an absolutely amazing professor. Congratulations again to all the winners and participants!
