TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — A group of University of Alabama advertising students won big at the recent American Ad Federation-Tuscaloosa’s ADDY awards, with every entry that was submitted winning a prize, including Student Best of Show.
The students were members of Dr. Glenn Griffin’s APR 418 campaigns class in the College of Communication and Information Sciences during the fall 2011 semester.
“This is a great achievement for our student writers and art directors,” Griffin said. “We’ve been working to enhance the creative part of our advertising program, and these awards, including the Best in Show honor, really speak to the progress we’ve made in a very short period of time. We look forward to more success in regional, national and international competitions in the future.”
