Three things to do before summer

1. SUBMIT YOUR NSPA CONTEST ENTRIES AND RENEW NSPA MEMBERSHIP

Contest deadline for all individual awards, Broadcast Pacemaker and Newspaper Pacemaker is June 15. Forms are available at the Web site http://nspa.studentpress.org/ – just look for Form Central. Membership must be current as of June 15.

2. SUBMIT YOUR CRITIQUES

Make sure you send your critique in as soon as possible. We have judges ready now. Having the full summer allows NSPA more options in returning your completed evaluation by the time you need it. You can get your website critiqued, too. The fee is $80, added to any membership. To submit your website for a critique, download the form at http://nspa.studentpress.org/pdf/nspawebcrit.pdf and send it to NSPA by mail, e-mail or fax.

3. SUBMIT PDF FILES FOR BEST OF THE HIGH SCHOOL PRESS

The next edition of Best of the High School Press, Volume 16, will be published in early 2011. The only way to have your publication content included is to submit PDF files for the selection process for Best of the High School Press. (This does not apply to sections of the book honoring winners of NSPA’s contests.) PDF files can be sent to NSPA either online or by mail. More info at http://contests.studentpress.org/bestof
