Pictured above are this year's Campus Challenge winners, from the VOX group at Rhodes College in Memphis, Tennessee. They produced an educational video about EC, did outreach on campus, and even organized with the local Planned Parenthood to give away free EC. Read all about the winners and all the Campus Challege contestants here.
