About Scholarship
Anthem is Ayn Rand’s “hymn to man’s ego.” It is the story of one man’s rebellion against a totalitarian, collectivist society. Equality 7-2521 is a young man who yearns to understand “the Science of Things.” But he lives in a bleak, dystopian future where independent thought is a crime and where science and technology have regressed to primitive levels.
The Anthem essay contest is open to all 8th — 12th grade students worldwide. If you are unsure about your eligibility status or have other questions about this year’s contest, please email us at [email protected].
