Students from The University of Texas-Pan American brought home top awards from the Texas Intercollegiate Press Association (TIPA) conference held at the Holiday Inn Emerald Beach in Corpus Christi, Texas recently.

Panorama, The Pan American and Bronc Radio and TV students took home 35 awards, in both on-site competitions and previously published mail-in materials.

“Statewide recognition is a very good thing for our students and program,” said Donna Pazdera, communication lecturer and adviser. “These awards speak well of our excellent faculty here at UTPA, all who have diverse backgrounds. Each of us contributes to some aspect of the field, which makes our program strong.”

Students competed in various contests including writing, editing, photography, on-air reporting and announcing, public relations crisis management, advertisement and design.

“It’s a good experience for our students to meet and compete against their peers from across the state and attend workshops that will, hopefully, inspire them,” Pazdera said.

Both Panorama and The Pan American won the overall sweepstakes contest in their divisions, which means the publications won the most points for all of its individual awards.

The Pan American also took home Best of Show for Division II Newspaper. Newspapers are judged on frequency of publication as well as size of student body.

Panorama won first place for overall design and second place for overall excellence in the general magazine category.

“These awards are really rewarding because we work incredibly hard to put out the best student newspaper we can, so it is great to get recognition for that,” said Nadia Tamez-Robledo, print journalism major and Arts and Life editor for The Pan American.
