Good news for a change: A new award

Over the winter holiday, I received word that the school newspaper, whose staff I advise, had been included among the 83 nationwide that will receive a Crown Award from the Columbia Scholastic Press Association at Columbia University. The 2003-04 paper will receive either a silver or gold Crown at the annual convention in March. This is a prestigious award, and the newspaper earned this accolade in its first entry to the contest.

This adds to the previous recognition for last year's paper, which earned top national ratings from CSPA and National Scholastic Press Association as well as a National Pacemaker from NSPA.

I am fortunate to work with such talented young people. They impress me every day.

Logan...if you get a crown, will you wear it for me? Maybe we can get you a sash to go with it!

Congrats on yet ANOTHER kudo for your cool paper.

Well, the Crown Award is not exactly an actual crown. It's just a certificate. But thanks for the kind words anyway.
