Sept. 30, 2019<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

MINNEAPOLIS \u2014 Honoring the nation\u2019s best, Associated College Press has named 41 student-produced collegiate magazines as finalists in its annual prestigious Pacemaker competition. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

 \u201cThe Pacemaker is the association\u2019s preeminent award,\u201d Laura Widmer, executive director, said. \u201cACP is honored to recognize the best of the best.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Pacemaker finalists will be recognized and the Pacemaker winners announced at the ACP\/CMA National College Media Convention,<\/a><\/strong> Oct. 31-Nov. 3, 2019, in Washington, D.C.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 41 magazines represent 22 states and Canada. In all, 126 magazines were entered in the Pacemaker competition, an increase from the 104 entered in 2018.  Magazines competed in feature\/general interest and literary arts divisions. There were 89 feature\/general interest magazines and 37 literary arts magazines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Magazines produced at both four-year and two-year institutions competed. There were 103 four-year and 22 two-year entries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A team of three judges, with extensive magazine-editing experience, studied each entry discussing its strengths and weaknesses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gary Lundgren, ACP associate director and coordinator of the Pacemaker competition, said that the quality of the winning collegiate magazines rivals those produced by professionals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe verbal and visual storytelling in the winning magazines is incredible and robust long-form stories combine with shorter quick-reads to pace the reader through the pages,\u201d Lundgren said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“In an era where print publications are on a decline, it is interesting to note the number of magazines competing in the Pacemaker competition is increasing each year, indicating that interest in magazine journalism is strong at the collegiate level,” Lundgren said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of the 41 Pacemaker finalists, nine are from two-year schools. ACP will name 14 magazines, approximately 11 percent of the entries, as Pacemaker winners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Comments from the judges about each of the 14 Pacemaker winners will be posted when they are announced along with professional bios of the judges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finalists are presented below in alphabetical order by state.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
