On March 15th, three UBC students participated in the 2025 Korean Speech Contest held at University of Toronto with competitors from across Canada. Anushka Lahiry competed in the Intermediate Category, while Aliyah Simpson and Yueyan Shi participated in the Advanced Category. The contest provided a great opportunity for students to showcase their language skills and cultural knowledge.
Anushka Lahiry won first place in the Intermediate Category, earning a scholarship for a summer language program in Korea and a prize worth $500. All participants did an outstanding job, and we are extremely proud of their hard work and dedication.
Congratulations to everyone who took part, and special recognition to Anushka!
