The Masters of Ceremony for the event were "dressed to kill" and equally professional
I was one of the judges along with these who sat on my right.
The are the ten finalist for the evening's contest. Did a beautiful opening number they did!
Contestant Number 8 does a intro to get things started. She also happens to be none other than Grace Sprite from the Department of English's Class 3 Sophomore class.
This is Contestant Number 5 doing a short number as part of the introduction to the evenings contestant. Guess what? She is our own Department of English's Isabella. What? Did you think I would be taking pictures of people I did not know?
Contestant Number 1 is a good friend of mine from Tibet, Kevin. Someone told me he had won the competition the year before and must have gotten the Number One position because of it. He can sing!
I actually loved the beginning of this couples singing. Played a little violin and then began their duet. Unfortunately, they never did get to sing with each other and often grated against each other's melody and words. Beautiful start though.
Grace Sprite surprises everyone with her low, silky and sexy voice. She was very impressive as Ms. Vamp.
Giselle, one of our new freshmen English Translation majors, rocks big time! She is a real pro.
Isabella, another English major, came through with a great performance. She, too, is very good.
Three contestants from other departments in the university.
At the end of the show, the ten contestants gave a final encore.
Pete, standing next to one of the department bosses (Ms. Susan) on the right, received an award for organizational excellence.
Both Grace Sprite and Isabella won second place. We in the Department of Foreign Languages were excited with their win.
Giselle won the top prize. Her hip-hop/rock presentation was over the top in excellence. She is very good!

A couple of happy performers.
Dean Jiang officially closed the culture week for another year.
