The Communications Department and the Department of Government Affairs received a first place award in the “General Excellence – Non-periodical Publications” category for the Boilermakers’ LEAP manual.
The Boilermakers’ website won second place in the “General Excellence” category.
The Boilermaker Reporter won three awards, including second place for “Best Design – Newspapers and Newsletters” (Oct-Dec issue), second place for “Best Front Page/Cover” (also for the Oct-Dec issue), and third place for “Best Editorial or Column” (International President Jones’ Commentary titled “EPA rules will not effectively impact world climate change”).
All awards were for work performed in 2013, with the exception of websites, which were judged live in 2014. The Boilermakers International competed at the national/international level. Competition was also held at regional, state, and local levels.
