Judges Comments
-
"Absolutely the best! Thorough attention to detail in design, visuals, and excellent variety of story content. A model newsletter. Congratulations!"
-
"On every count - content, layout, writing, photos - this newsletter stands out. A model of what a newsletter should be."
Solidarity Award Winners
Faculty Association of Suffolk Community College
THE WORD. Editor: Kevin Peterman. President: Ellen Schuler Mauk
Judges Comments:
-
"This extremely well researched piece takes a strong stand for 'victim' adjuncts at community college. This article does a very complete job of reporting the national, state and local perspective on a timely and important issue. The background facts are clearly laid out, and interpreted very clearly and effectively. It might have been better to keep the recital of facts more concise, and paraphrase the findings in simpler language."
Sachem Central Teachers Association
SCTA SPEAK OUT. Editor: Blythe Kramer. President: John Heslin.
Judges Comments
-
"This terrific explanation of the 'what' and 'why' of VOTE-COPE is at the heart of solidarity. Demonstrations and rallies are fine, but as the writer says, VOTE-COPE 'gives you the luxury of having a watchdog on guard for the quality of your job at all times.'"
-
"This is one of the best discussions of the importance of VOTE/COPE I have seen. And, in the course of laying out the accomplishments of this critical program, the piece successfully integrates local issues with state and national concerns and efforts."
