Apple Awards 2009
Thirteen college media organizations captured top honors at the David L. Adams Apple Awards during the 2009 Spring National College Media Convention in New York City. The awards, long a feature of the spring conference attended by more than 1,200 student journalists and their advisers, have been renamed to honor Adams, a longtime College Media Advisers stalwart and adviser at Indiana University, who died in 2007.
