Dear readers,
A year after COVID-19 altered our operations and challenged our community in ways we never thought possible, we are grateful to announce that our organization won 24 awards and a scholarship at the virtual 2021 Texas Intercollegiate Press Association (TIPA).
TIPA is the oldest collegiate media organization in the country. It consists of 77 public and private two-year colleges and four-year universities in Texas that teach journalism or have existing or planned student publications. The annual awards honor excellence in student media.
The conference typically features a mix of journalism discussions/sessions and on-site and previously-published contests. However, the pandemic did not allow for the on-site competitions to take place, similar to last year.
Nominations include content published throughout 2020. Here is a list of our winners:
