Welcome to the SPJ - University of Idaho chapter website!
·
The UI SPJ provisional chapter is
the only journalism organization on campus at the University of Idaho.
After years of inactivity, the group was rekindled a couple years ago
and this year is our first official year as a nationally recognized
chapter.
·
The University
of Idaho Argonaut, of which
many reporters and editors are SPJ members, had a strong showing at
the SPJ National Conference Oct. 16-18 in Las Vegas. The student newspaper
took home the award for the Best Non-Daily Newspaper in the Nation
for the 2004 SPJ Mark of Excellence Awards. Also, Frank McGovern, the
liberal opinion columnist for The Argonaut and a writer for the University of Idaho Blot magazine, earned a
first place award for his work at the magazine.
·
In other news: Chapter leaders

the panelists, check out the Upcoming Events
section. We welcome all majors to the event!
