KSC Journalism Society Named Outstanding New Chapter

The Society for Collegiate Journalists recently created an “Outstanding New Chapter” award to honor a new and energetic member of the SCJ family. And can you guess which chapter was the first to receive this award? You guessed it! Thanks to Dr. Marianne Salcetti’s petition, the KSC chapter was the big winner.

“Keene State is a nice, solid chapter,” said SCJ Executive Director Dr. Mary Beth Earnheardt. “I had a memorable conversation with Dr. Salcetti this fall, and it made me look back at the file. They enter and place in the contest and seem to have a large and active group of student journalists. But, I guess the thing I liked so much was the energy Dr. Salcetti had about this group. With this type of start, I think Keene State will be one of our best moving forward.”
