The Campus Times, La Verne Magazine and LVTV recently received numerous top awards – beating out such schools as UC Riverside and Cal Poly Pomona – in an annual journalism competition sponsored by the Inland Southern California Professional Chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists.
Remember when Ferris Bueller hops into bed, crosses his arms behind his head and says one of the most memorable quotes in ‘80s cinema? “Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.” Oh so true, Ferris, oh so true.
It is finally over. After four long years of classrooms, professors, finals and projects, my last few days at the University of La Verne have arrived. I will only step foot inside the Arts and Communications Building on just a few more occasions before it’s completely adios, amigos time. I will be an official ULV graduate.
University of La Verne journalists cleaned up – capturing numerous top awards including second place in the “Best Newspaper” category, first place for “Best Magazine,” and first and second place for “Best TV Feature Segment,” 2005 – in a regional Society of Professional Journalist contest last week.
