Ladies and gentleman, after a month of competition, a winner has been crowned! This year’s winner of Arch Madness is … the Incantation bowl from the Lawrence Library. The bowl defeated last year’s Arch Madness champion, 1603 Book of Alchemy, 372-350. For the next couple of days, the Incantation bowl will be on display in RL 3021 on display. It will also have an automatic bid to the 2019 Arch Madness competition.

Thank you to everyone who voted over the past month and we hope you enjoyed this year’s competition. We look forward to having you all vote again in next year’s competition. Until next time!
