The Ithacan was the only student weekly in the country to win either award.
Following on the heels of the Ithacan's third consecutive Online Pacemaker Award from the Associated Collegiate Press in November, CSPA's newly created Online Crown Award solidifies the Ithacan Online's standing as a leader in college multimedia journalism.
Crown Awards are the highest recognition given by the CSPA to a student print or online medium. The awards were presented March 15 at the spring National College Media Convention in New York City. The CSPA has recognized excellence in journalism with Gold and Silver Crown Awards for student newspapers, magazines, and yearbooks since the early 1980s. The award for online publications was added this year.
