We are pleased to announce that Nexus magazine and The Southerner have both been named 2015 Columbia Scholastic Press Association Crown Award finalists. For Nexus, it’s the fourth year in a row that the staff has been named a Crown Award finalist. Finalists receive either Gold or Silver Crown Awards at the CSPA annual convention next March. If The Southerner wins its second consecutive Gold Crown, the staff will earn the scholastic journalism Triple Crown for the first time in school history (NSPA Pacemaker, Quill and Scroll Gallup and CSPA Gold Crown awards).
