The Crimson White won the highest award in collegiate journalism for its 2014-15 run: the Pacemaker Award, given annually to the top collegiate newspapers in the nation.

The Associated College Press and College Media Association has been awarding the Pacemaker, commonly referred to as “the Pulitzer Prize of collegiate journalism,” at the ACP/CMA National Media Convention for 90 years. Mark Mayfield, the editorial advisor of the Crimson White said he thinks the award is well deserved.

“I think it’s important to underscore just why the CW won the award: it consistently published well-reported stories that students not only wanted to know, but needed to know,” he said.

Such wonderful news! It’s another great reason we are so glad BOTH our kids chose UA!!
Roll Tide!
