Workshops Award Winners
Each year, the Workshops come to a close
with an awards ceremony where instructors give awards to deserving
students in their Workshops and the Overall News Writing Awards
are announced. A$500 scholarship is also given to a senior student
who plans to major in Journalism and Mass Communication at the University
of Iowa. These are the awards that students received at our awards
ceremony on July 26, 2007.
