Place Name: First Place Contestant Name: The Clarion Entry Title: Pursuing reparations Entry Credit: Emily Rossing Judge Comment: A very well done, complete story that starts with a nice first-person account of how race impacted a person's experiences and then goes into very detailed explanation about the thinking and process behind paying reparations. The photos accompanying the story were also good. Overall a very well-done story.
Place Name: Second Place Contestant Name: Tommie Media (University of St. Thomas) Entry Title: MnDOT looks to solve issues with 'Rethinking I-94' Entry Credit: Derek Badger Judge Comment: Well written story. Nice use of quotes and sources. Also really like the scrolling graphics of the timeline and process at the top and the links within the story to more information. A very well done piece.
Place Name: Third Place Contestant Name: The Concordian (Moorhead) Entry Title: CONCO president selection to be confidential Entry Credit: Maria Klipfel Judge Comment: Good story explaining the search process for a new president and the differences between an open and closed search and the explanation of the pros and cons of both. Nice job.
