Accent's staff recently came home with 31 awards at this year's Texas Intercollegiate Press Association (TIPA) state convention. Seventeen students made the trip to Kerrville where they attended workshops and competed in on-site competitions with 47 different Texas colleges. The Accent team won five on-site contests and 26 mailed entries contests. The contests featured categories in various journalism mediums: Newspaper, Online and Magazine.
"The publications staff is incredibly proud to have done so well in these professionally judged journalism competitions. It reinforces the hard work and very long hours that everyone puts in to producing quality student media for the ACC community," Accent Editor-in-Chief Sarah Neve said.
ACC's Creative Writing Department's literary magazine, The Rio Review, also received an honorable mention for Literary Magazine, Overall Quality. For a complete list of winners, please head to tinyurl.com/accenttipa.
