Traditions - MINERVA
At the 2009 National Collegiate Honors Council (NCHC) Conference in Washington, DC, MINERVA earned first place- again!- in the annual publication contest, based on our 2007 and 2008 editions. In 2007 MINERVA took first place for our 2005 and 2006 editions, and in 2005 MINERVA was honored with a second place award for the 2004 and 2003 editions.
Past Honors College Associates, Lauren Marshall ’04, Isaac Record ’03, and Alice White-Cyr ’05 deserve special recognition for this first-place honor. Lauren was in Denver to accept the award at the annual President’s Dinner from NCHC President Hallie Savage. UMaine President Robert Kennedy recognized this achievement in his monthly Go Blue! message, writing “MINERVA is a wonderful publication, and we are proud of this recognition. Publications like MINERVA showcase the wonderful work of UMaine students, faculty, staff and alumni alike.” Honors College Dean Charlie Slavin couldn’t agree more, “MINERVA continues to serve as a vehicle to raise the college’s visibility. To be recognized nationally for our hard work by our peers is very special, indeed.”
