UASC wants to thank all of this year’s competing institutions for another successful Arch Madness competition. This year’s competition broke last year’s overall voting record with 3,843 total votes in all four rounds. We have crowned a new champion and the winner is …

… the silk tapestry from the University of Evansville Libraries! They defeated the “Marijuana and the Bible” booklet from the University Archives and Special Collections (USI), 231 to 156, in the championship round. Congratulations on a great win and we look forward to the silk tapestry defending its title in next year’s Arch Madness competition.

Thank you all for voting and we will see you next year!
