Calvin's student newspaper "Chimes" recently won nine College Newspaper Contest awards from the Michigan Collegiate Press Association (MCPA).
Chimes collected first place awards for its online edition, a news story titled "Student Sits Next to Terror Suspect on Christmas Flight" by Emma Slager; feature page design by Katie Hall and Jackson Hall for "ABC...Grand Rapids" and best original cartoon for "Insomnia" by Lauren Kelly.
"I would say it was a pleasure and a surprise to win so many because they actually took away categories this year-and they only allowed one entrant per person per category," said Stephen Mulder, last year's editor-in-chief of Chimes.
The nine awards bested last year's haul of seven awards for the newspaper.
