2024-25 Postscript Receives Gold Medalist Critique from Columbia Scholastic Press Association

Category:

NEWS FLASH! Postscript got the Gold! The Columbia Scholastic Press Association awarded the 2024-25 Postscript, our student newspaper, a Gold Medalist Critique. The Columbia Scholastic Press Association, a department of Columbia University, was established in 1925 to help improve student publications. 

Congratulations to 2024-25 Editors-in-chief Emma Borden ’25 and Zach Maine ’25, and to all editors and writers who contributed. 

“Your newspaper reflects strong and consistent written and editorial policies throughout the issues provided. You very strongly localize your stories and emphasize stories relevant to your community (particularly in your NEWS and FEATURES sections). Strong story selection and quality writing throughout.” — excerpts from the judge’s overall comments

More about Postscript: A wholly extra-curricular activity, the newspaper is staffed by highly motivated and dedicated editors and writers who spend hours after school and during weekends to create a newspaper that reflects their sense of news, commentary, features, arts, and sports. As a student-run organization, the content and look of the paper are the responsibility of its editors, and the school fully supports this effort by giving them the freedom to publish openly.
