NORTHEAST ALABAMA COMMUNITY COLLEGE WINS ACSPRA AWARDS                  

 

 Northeast Alabama Community College received awards at the Alabama College System Public Relations Association summer conference held recently in Birmingham.

During the conference, the Pyramid Awards ceremony recognized two-year college marketing professionals who submitted marketing items created and used during the 2005 year. Winners received either a Pyramid Award or Certificates of Achievement or Merit.

Debra Barrentine, Director of Promotions and Marketing at Northeast, received a Pyramid Award for the design of the college’s full color recruiting brochure “Discover NACC—Discover Success!” Judges’ comments included, “Very functional—included map and tear-off response card.”

Sigma Kappa Delta won a Pyramid Award in the Student Publications category for the Aurora Magazine 2005, sponsored by Joan Reeves. This publication includes original art and written works by NACC students as well as area high school and middle school writing competition winners. Aurora is published annually by the Epsilon Alpha Chapter of Sigma Kappa Delta and the English and Fine Arts Department at NACC.

The Yearbook Staff won an Award of Merit in the Student Publications category for the Backroads Yearbook 2005, “A Focus on Identity,” sponsored by Sheila Akins. This is the 32nd volume of Backroads. Backroads is prepared annually by students participating in the Mass Communications classes at NACC.

“Letting our community know what is going on at Northeast is extremely important to us,” stated NACC President Dr. David Campbell. “It is a real accomplishment to have our staff recognized statewide for their skills in communicating with the public.”

The mission of ACSPRA is to enhance the image, strengthen and promote awareness and public perception of the Alabama College System.
