Nerdy Aside

The student paper I was on in college won what is called the Pacemaker Award this past weekend. The award is known as the Pulitzer of College Journalism. Twenty college papers nationwide were honored with Pacemakers this year.

The award is given out by the Associated College Press.

We last won the award in 1998, which is also when we were inducted into the ACP Hall of Fame.


Nerdy, but cool. We're a small liberal arts Jesuit University - about 4,000 undergrads. The newspaper staff was always less than 20, so we did a lot with a little and I'm proud.
