The Dave Adams Apple Awards 2009
Adams Apple Awards announced
Thirteen college media organizations captured top honors at the David L. Adams Apple Awards during the Spring National College Media Convention in New York City. The awards, long a feature of the spring conference this year attended by over 1,200 student journalists and their advisers, have been renamed to honor Adams, a longtime College Media Advisers stalwart and adviser at Indiana University, who died in 2007. The twelve category field included a tie for best college daily.
