We rock!
Congratulations to Cole Norum, who was a regional winner in the Society of Professional Journalists Mark of Excellence contest. Cole was recognized for a photo illustration for Drake Magazine; his work will now move up to the national competition. National winners will be notified in late spring.
Drake Magazine was a finalist for best student magazine in the contest, and Think was a finalist for best digital-only student publication.
Sarah Fulton, a junior news-Internet major, landed a nationally competitive summer internship with the Scripps Howard Foundation newswire. She’ll work in Washington, D.C., just blocks from the White House, reporting on news and features in the capital.
