They knew they had won an award – they didn't know they would win three.
At the Society of Professional Journalists reception in the Indianapolis Marriott, five remaining students from Lauren Onkey's Spring 2005 seminar, Consuming a Nation, gathered around the banquet table for dinner before their awards were announced. The students snagged a first place award for Best Radio Documentary or Series, Consuming a Nation; first place for Best Radio Feature The Changing Face of Ireland and Second Place for Best Radio Feature Plastic Pubs.
