Should Chairman's Winners Be Required to Publicly Post Essays?

[Akash Rastogi]

This is a discussion I've been having with a few friends for the past few months, and they've been asking me to post a thread on the topic for a while.

So, should District and Regional Chairman's winners (as well as HOF teams, but they usually do anyway) be mandated to make their winning essays publicly available? Many teams already do this, and others willingly do if asked, but what about a team who does not wish to or refuses to share an essay?

I have several of my own opinions on this matter, but I'd like to hear what others think before I post them. Some of my reasons might sound controversial, but I think this will be a good discussion to hold.

What do you think on the matter and what is your reasoning?
