Among the awards The Tattoo picked up at the Scholastic Press Forum this week was one for its founders. Yes, Jackie Majerus and Steve Collins were also singled out for something special.
They picked up the Dean Milton Birnbaum Award targeted at journalism educators.
The dean of American International College’s communications department, Will Hughes, said he knew of no two people who had done more last year to help young journalists.
He praised The Tattoo for its stellar year, which included 41 printed issues and much more published online.
“It’s a huge thing and I think it’s going to get huger,” Hughes said.
We think so, too.
