Hello everyone,
On March 20, for the first time in a number of years, the Stentor received a Best of Show Award for Vol. 136, Issue 5 at the virtual Connect 2021: Spring National College Media Convention presented by the Associated College Press, the College Media Association, and the College Media Business and Advertising Managers.
We placed alongside other publications in the four-year college newspaper, less-than-weekly category, including The Gothic Times from New Jersey City University, The Crimson White from the University of Alabama, The Arrow from Southeast Missouri State University, The Bison from Harding University, and the Griffon News from Missouri Western State University. In addition to the award ceremony, our Managing Editor was also able to attend a keynote by Ashley Parker, a White House reporter for The Washington Post.
It was incredibly exciting to attend the Spring National College Media Convention and receive a Best of Show Award, and we are looking forward to attending future events hosted by the Associated College Press and other college media organizations.
We truly could not have done this without our fantastic editorial board and staff writers, who have all worked tirelessly to produce the Stentor amid the challenges of the pandemic.
All of us at the Stentor are grateful to each of you for your continued readership and support!
Thank you,
Emma Overton ’21
Editor-in-Chief and News Editor
