Central Park — Clark College student journalists scored first- and fourth-place finishes during the annual Associated Collegiate Press’ midwinter conference, held March 2-5 in San Francisco, Calif.
The Clark College Independent finished first ahead of 14 other schools in the large-school online news category. The paper’s print edition finished fourth out of 12 entries from community colleges.
The conference featured students from 84 colleges and universities, and more than 100 workshops.
Clark students Marvin Pe?a and Diana Aristizabal presented a workshop called “Can You Hear Me Now? Creating New Media Outlets,” detailing their efforts in producing the Independent’s Spanish-language insert, Mundo Clark.
The Independent staff publishes a print edition every three weeks and updates the online edition regularly at www.clarkcollegeindependent.com.
