Gods among men

 

Russell Gottwaldt, editor, is the only student winner of the prestigious National Journalism Awards from the Scripps Howard Foundation, which now offers an award for college newspaper cartooning in honor of the late Charles P. Schulz.  Russell received the award at the National Press Club ceremonies this weekend, a prize of $10,000 which he promises to share with the F staff. Not!

Fnewsmagazine.com (Editor: Nicolette Bond and Webmaster: Shellie Fiocca) won Best overall Design and Best Website from the Student Society for News Design. SSND called F’s website “a clear winner,” over websites from schools with large journalism programs and well-established sites. -Illinois College Press Association

Fnewsmagazine.com won a Silver Crown Award from the Columbia Scholastic Press Association (Columbia University School of Journalism) for Spring 2005.

F has made a major commitment to its website in the past two years. Unlike other college newspaper sites, which use publishing services such as College Publisher, F staff designs its own website without any advertising support. We also in the past have suffered by comparison with website from college dailies and weeklies, which can update with news frequently, in contests where judges see newspaper websites as a means of providing constantly updated news reporting. This year we received recognition for the excellence of our design and the innovative content, which includes numerous web  exclusives, including faculty and student blogs, a literary magazine, and, mentioned by SSND’s critique, F Zine, a section for high school artists and writers.

COLLEGE CARTOONING

Russell Gottwaldt, F Newsmagazine, SAIC of Chicago, receives $10,000 and the Charles M. Schulz award.

The Scripps Howard Foundation announced the winners of its annual National Journalism Awards, honoring the best in print, web and electronic journalism and journalism education for 2005.

Gottwaldt is experimenting with writing and drawing a multi-paged editorial comic, featuring off-beat humor mixed with sophisticated social commentary. His work has alternative appeal, but is still accessible to the mainstream reader. Judges said that his work represents where the cartoon industry is going while building on where it’s been. Finalists: Terrence L. Nowicki Jr., Western Washington University, and Nate Robinson, University of Washington.
