State Student Journalists of the Year: Part 2

Host Jim Jordan recently discovered that seven of the JEA State Journalists of the Year winners all have yearbook in their resumes AND their schools published their books with Walsworth Yearbooks. He believes strongly that yearbook students are also true scholastic journalists – just as much as newspaper, online and broadcast – and deserve this kind of recognition. On this episode, Jim chats with three of those State Journalists of the Year. Lucy Bickel, ELCO High School, Myerstown, Pennsylvania Kaitlin Reynolds, Millard West High School, Omaha, Nebraska Elizabeth Bunnell, southside High School, Fort Smith, Arkansas Lucy is a four-year yearbook staffer. She has written for Idea file magazine and has been on this podcast with her dad, Jon, who is her adviser. Her book from 2021 recently earned a CSPA Silver Crown. Lucy plans to attend Penn State University in the fall. Kaitlin has been a member of the Prowler yearbook staff for three years, and has also been part of online, broadcast and livestream publications as well. She plans on attending the University of Kansas in the fall. Elizabeth is the editor of the yearbook and also writes for the online newspaper and is known to take a photo or two for all the publications. She plans on attending the University of Arkansas.
