The award for the podcast, which was submitted against hundreds of others at the conference, is the first for Insight Magazine. It is only in its sophomore year of publication and it is the first conference that the editors have attended.
“I was nervous because it’s our first year and I’m shocked in a good way,” said Kudelka. “I think it shows how hard we’ve been working and it’s a really great stepping stone for what Insight Magazine is becoming.”
The Best of Show awards are judged during the conference and were awarded on Sunday Nov. 1.
Insight Magazine began in Sept. 2008. It is the only student-run magazine on campus and publishes six times a year. Web content includes stories, photos, videos, podcasts, polls and more. Visit www.UNRINSIGHT.COM to read current or archived issues and see web content.
