The Department of Finance at the University of Illinois, in partnership with the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, hosts an annual video essay contest in April during Money Smart Week. The theme for 2018 was about the dos and don’ts of money borrowing and lending. The contest is open to all high school students in the area, and this year they had a record number of 37 entries.
Sisters Amanda and Alexa Franklin from Mahomet-Seymour High School took the top prize with their video called Money Smart or Not. First place came with a $500 prize presented at a Rotary function on May 7. Their video was featured at the event along with the other finalists.
Their entry was accompanied by eight others from the MSHS Digital Multimedia course. All 2018 contest submissions, as well as past years’, can be viewed at the following link. http://www.business.illinois.edu/FinancialLiteracy/VideoList.aspx
