CSCA States Advisory Journal and Manuscript Awards

States Advisory Council will recognize the top journal and manuscript.

CSCA States Advisory Journal and Manuscript Awards

The Central States Communication Association (CSCA) States Advisory Council will recognize the top journal as well as the top manuscript at the annual CSCA conference in Kansas City in April 2013.  On behalf of the CSCA States Advisory Council I invite journal editors of central states journals to consider placing forward your state’s journal a well as a manuscript published in your state’s journal over the past year.  We want to recognize the quality of work found in Central States journals.                 

Specifically, here’s what I would like for you to do:

Journal (CSCA STATE JOURNAL AWARD):

Please send me a PDF copy of your 2012 state journal to my email address: randydillon@missouristate.edu

Manuscript (CSCA STATE JOURNAL MANUSCRIPT AWARD):

In the same email that you attach the PDF copy of your state journal, identify one particular article from the publication that you believe exemplifies some of the “best work” that is published in your state’s journal during the past year.   Briefly explain in a couple of paragraphs why this article has been selected.   Include reasons for the quality in writing, content, connectivity with your organization, and with the discipline. 

I ask that you submit your entries by Friday, February 8, 2013, 5:00pm CST

The winner of the CSCA State Journal Award and the winners of the CSCA State Journal Manuscript Award will be contacted in early March. 

If you have questions or concerns contact me at randydillon@missouristat.edu or 417-836-4986.

Thank you.
