Crystal Lafata and the Tusk Magazine staff took national
honors at the recent convention of the Society of Professional
Journalists in Chicago.
Tusk Magazine received the Mark of Excellence Award
as a finalist in two categories, Best All-Around Online
Student Magazine and Best Student Magazine (published
once a year).
This places Tusk in the top three entries among universities
across the country for both categories. Tusk had won
the Western regionals.
The magazine and web site were judged for content,
design, editing and photography. Students in Communications
437 (Advanced Magazine Writing) and Communications 434
(The Magazine Industry and Production) serve as the
staff of the magazine, which is produced once a year.
"This shows our students can compete against the
best universities in the nation," said Professor
Jeffrey Brody, the magazine adviser. "Tusk aims
for the highest standards of excellence."
