Crimson Reporters Win Awards

By Crimson Staff

Four Crimson reporters have won the Columbia Scholastic Press Association’s Gold Circle Awards, an honor given annually to the nation’s top college journalists.

Associate Managing Editor Kate L. Rakoczy ’04 won first place in the news features category for “On Somber Eve, Business as Usual in New York City,” a report from New York on the anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks.

Associate Editorial Chair Stephen W. Stromberg ’05 won first place in the personality profile category for “A Vigilante Travels the Consulting Circuit Alone,” a piece that described the life of a Harvard alumnus who has advised companies from the National Rifle Association to Mother Earth News.

William Lee Adams ’04-’05 received a certificate of merit in the first person experience category for “Elementary Vietnamese,” an essay on his trip to the farm in Vietnam where his mother was born.

Associate Arts Chair Tiffany I. Hsieh ’04 won first place in the entertainment review category for “The Wedding Story,” an article published in the Harvard Independent when Hsieh was a reporter for that publication.

The award ceremony took place last weekend at the 25th Annual College Media Convention in New York City.

The Gold Circle is the largest national competition for individual achievement in college, university and high school publications throughout the United States. The four Crimson reporters were selected from a pool of almost 4000 entries from college newspapers around the country.
