UM journalism students aim
for top of national competition

After the most recent rounds of competition sponsored by the Hearst Journalism Awards Program, UM journalism students have landed their school in fourth place in the nation in both the print and broadcast competitions and in fifth place nationally in photojournalism.

The Hearst awards -- widely referred to as the "Pulitzers of college journalism" -- are open to students from more than 100 accredited journalism programs across the country. Students enter periodic competitions in print, photojournalism, television news and radio news. Winners are awarded points that reflect schools' national rankings as the yearlong competition progresses, ending with the national championships in May in San Francisco.
