The awards and judges' comments--
1st place:
Laura McSpadden, Best News or Feature Series, for "Outdoors in Indiana": "Useful series focuses on outdoor adventures just minutes from campus. The writer is a brave soul who blazes the path."
2nd place:
Matthew Penner, Best Opinion Column, for "The Problem with Styrofoam": "Well-researched column that alerts the campus to environmental hypocrisy. Writer offers a solution, though perhaps an expensive one."
Jessica Hickerson and Adam King, Best Stand-alone/Pullout Section, for "Literary Journalism" : "Refreshing writing examples. Effective use of literary techniques to convey journalistic message."
3rd place:
Adam King, Best Sports News Story, for "Spartan Football Beats Hiram": "Clever lead, good use of sports jargon. Effective support from quotes."
Adam King, Best Sports Column, for "Is MVP A-Rod worth the money?": "Clever play on words (Pay-Rod) and lively writing makes for an entertaining read."
Adam King, Best Entertainment Column, for "Heartbreak Kid": "Reviewed points out the films many flaws, but still finds it entertaining at times. Knowledge of similar films provides a useful contrast."
Jessica Hickerson, Best Opinion Column, for "Support Our Troops, Not War": "Good job of relating personal experience to issues of national concern. Writer acknowledges value of conflicting opinions."
Alina BigJohny, Best Sports Feature Story, for "Hall Director Marinello Made into a Runner": "Charming story with lots of detail. Not the traditional 'make-over' plot."
