Answer: "The New Colossus" was inscribed on the Statue of Liberty's pedestal in (C.) 1903.

Explanation: "The New Colossus" is a sonnet written by Emma Lazarus in 1883. By writing this poem, she expected to contribute and raise some money for the construction of the Statue of Liberty's pedestal. Once the pedestal was built, "The New Colossus" was inscribed on it; however, <u>Lazarus did not get to see it since she died 16 years before her poem was cast onto a plaque attached to the pedestal in 1903. </u>
