The entries for the Maroon & Gold Awards this year were
inventive, innovative, and impressive. When the awards committee got done
spreading them out, they were struck with how INCREDIBLE we are as a group of professional communicators. It was an amazing array of examples of how, in the face of
budget cuts, layoffs, and the discouragement those realities have brought to us
all in the past year, we have not only persevered, we have exceeded ourselves.
Congratulations! And the winners are...

Congrats winners! Also, a big thanks to all who submitted entries!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, all!
ReplyDeleteI seem to recall that few years ago the winning entries themselves were posted online. Am I right? In any event, I know some other competitions do this, and I do take the time to view them.
I'd love it if the Forum would do that, so we can all see and be inspired by the work itself. I know it's some effort, but it may be that it would be justified by what we could all learn from the Forum in this way.
