Comments on the 2/25/09 issue of the UMD Statesman
This week we're pleased that our Public Editor is Avesa Rockwell, an instructor in the Department of Writing Studies.
The results of this week's edies (Editing Class Awards for Greatness in Journalism) are in and the winners are:
- Story of the week: The average guy article written by Jared Dyrdahl is this week's winner. His column looks at the UMD women's hockey team and explores how women's sports are perceived in general.
- Lead of the week: This goes to Emma Fromberg for her article on Stage II's new play, "Hot Trash." Here's the lead: Years ago, two friends embarked on a journey. It began with a rumor of a "glam- rock" party, mixed in with some out-of-date fashions and intense role-playing. This dream has become a reality and now a masterful performance.
Next week, UMD's student-run theater company, Stage II, will present a play written, directed and performed by students.
- Headline of the week: For article on alleged wallet theft: Wallet-stealing UMD student captured after ordering pizza
- Photo of the week: Goes to David Cowardin for his underwater shot of Tony Nigon.
- Person of the week: This new award is awarded to the story that includes a real person living the news. There were a number of choices, but the winner was found in Meghan Butler's article about rental housing, which includes JJ Peterson, a sophomore who has been house hunting in Duluth for the past couple weeks.
