Do you have published work?

While on your few days of break, it's the perfect time to gather all your published work from 2009 and organize them for the Mark of Excellence Awards!

Annually, the Society of Professional Journalists presents the Mark of
Excellence Awards honoring the best in student journalism. The awards offer
39 categories for print, radio, television and online collegiate journalism.
Entries are first judged on the regional level, with winners moving on to
the national competition.

REQUIREMENTS: You must be enrolled in a college or university and the  work
has to have been published or broadcast in 2009.

cover $3 of the fee if you turn your entries in to Patricia Gallagher
