Winning these awards is a\u00a0validation\u00a0of that tour de force effort,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p><em>Campus Times<\/em> and <em>La&nbsp;Verne Magazine<\/em> rose above nearly 1,100 newspapers, magazines, and other college publications throughout the world to win Silver Crown Awards from the Columbia Scholastic Press Association.<\/p>\n<p>CSPA <a href=\"http:\/\/cspa.columbia.edu\/recepient-lists\/2018-awards-student-work-crown-awards-collegiate-recipients\">announced<\/a> the awards at its 2018 College Media Convention in New York. The newspaper and magazine both won in the print\/online hybrid category.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m thrilled,\u201d said Elizabeth Zwerling, professor of journalism and <em>Campus Times<\/em> adviser. \u201cThis is the second time we have received a crown award in the time I\u2019ve been here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lau and Grasso \u2013 who served as <em>Campus Times<\/em> editors during the judging period \u2013 credited the hard work and talent of the newspaper\u2019s staff.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEveryone put in so much dedicated time and effort into their articles, photos, or editing, and I think it really showed,\u201d said Lau, editor in the fall of 2016. \u201cIt was the total efforts of everyone involved that made this award possible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Campus Times <a href=\"https:\/\/lvcampustimes.org\/2018\/04\/campus-times-la-verne-magazine-receive-national-honors\/\">has won<\/a> more than 20 CSPA Gold Medal Awards since 2001.

Reporters covered everything from breaking news to political issues.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI remember one day, one of the editors texted me that there were almost 10 cop cars and multiple ambulances outside of Bonita High School,\u201d Grasso said. \u201cWe drove over immediately and just started to talk to families, ask questions, and figure out what was going on. We felt like actual journalists in the real world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Celene Vargas \u201817, editor of <em>La&nbsp;Verne Magazine<\/em> in spring 2016, said she was pleased to be a part of an award-winning team.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>La&nbsp;Verne Magazine<\/em> and <em>Campus Times<\/em> both have a history of being award-winning student publications. Just look at all the plaques covering the walls in the newsroom!\u201d she said. \u201cEveryone worked so hard and I\u2019m glad our efforts paid off and we were able to continue that legacy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Founded in 1925 and based at Columbia University in New York, CSPA is one of the oldest, largest and most prestigious student journalism associations.<\/p>\n<p>Campus Times is the weekly, student-run campus newspaper that covers the University of La&nbsp;Verne and surrounding communities.
