The Daily Titan was named a Gold Medalist for 2006-07 by the Columbia
Scholastic Press Association in fall 2007. The highest scores were in overall presentation, editing and headlines, graphics/design and arts/entertainment.
One of the judges noted that “Buzz” (entertainment) was the strongest
section in the paper.
The advertising staff did equally well. They placed second overall by the College Newspaper Business & Advertising
Managers, Inc.
The staff also received second and third place awards in various categories by the California College Media Association and the Orange County Ad Club.
And Tusk, the student magazine produced in two communications courses, took top honors in a contest sponsored by the College Media Advisers, a national body representing student media.
Theresa Vergara won first place Best of College Media Design for a feature magazine spread, and Vergara and Steven Boyd won first place for Editorial Illustration for All Publications.
Tusk also won the Pacemaker Award at the Associated Collegiate Press National Convention in October 2007 in Washington,
D.C. This competition is considered by many to be student journalism’s highest honor.
