Society of Professional Journalists' Regional Award Winners

Hmmm ... let's see ... there are 14 teaching members of the journalism faculty here, one of whom teaches photojournalism. At the Society of Professional Journalists' regional award ceremony, the Red & Black won 16 awards this year (scroll down to the second editorial) ... seven of them for photography.

Hmmm ...

Congrats go to:

• Richard Hamm - first place in Sports Photography
• Josh D. Weiss - first place in Photo Illustration, second place in Feature Photography, second place in Sports Photography
• Kelly Wegel - second place in General News Photography
• Danielle Hutlas - third place in Breaking News Photography
• The Red & Black staff - third place in Feature Photography

Also heard this weekend that Josh D. Weiss won in the sports photo category at the Southern Short Course in News Photography.

Nice work, guys.
