ISWNE

Also this year: a *new* award for best college/university editorial. Or, a judge could place a student editorial into the Golden Dozen mix with the pros instead. Student entry fee is $5. Questions? Email Chad Stebbins at stebbins-c@mssu.edu. (3/3)

One change is to entry fees. Before everyone paid $20 to enter either one or two editorials. Now, it's $10 per entry for ISWNE members, with up to two per person (four total for a newsroom). The non-member entry fee is $15. (2/3)

The start of a new year means it's Golden Quill season. The deadline to enter this year's competition is Feb. 1. We have a few changes this year... (1/3) iswne.org/highlights/gol…
