Your help and expertise are needed as a judge for our sister chapter — the Press Club of Western Pennsylvania’s Golden Quill Awards. That chapter will be judging our Dateline Awards in exchange.
Judges will receive the entries and instructions shortly and results are due April 6. All judging will be done online through the Better Newspaper Contest platform. Serving as a judge is very easy and fun, and you can judge as few or as many categories as you like.
Categories include:
- Enterprise/Investigative
- Spot/Breaking News
- News Feature
- Traditional Feature
- Public Affairs/Politics/Government
- Business/Technology/Consumer
- Medical/Health
- Science/Environment
- History/Culture
- Arts/Entertainment
- Lifestyle
- Education
- Sports
- Profiles
- Columns/Blogs
- Editorials
There’s also a student contest.
