Four
Professional Writing & Editing (PWE) capstone students showcased their
internship work at the biannual PWE Poster Exhibit Thursday. Judges' and attendees' votes have
been tallied, and the winner of the top poster award is:
Monty Sylvan, FiT Publishing
Monty
described the range of editing tasks he undertook as an intern for the sports
sciences publisher—from proofreading a journal to indexing a textbook.
Congratulations
to all of the interns on their accomplishments this term, including:
Joseph Conrad, who helped to modernize the
communications—from legal documents to social media—at Conrad Legal Corporation.
Devin Lacy, who constructed and
deconstructed textbooks to create new editions and supplementary teaching
material, including PowerPoints, for FiT
Publishing.
Jeremy Maddox, who invited us onto a
grant-writer’s whirling ride of research, proposals, and plans for a playground
for disabled children via his work at Stepping Stones.
Thank
you to everyone who supported these talented English majors by attending the
poster exhibit and voting for their favorite posters. A special thanks to the
events' judges, as well: Jessica Walker,
Kasey Osborne, and Doug Phillips.
