The 2007-2008 Red Cedar Log just won its first award of the season, taking a First Class rating with 3 marks of distinction from the Associated Collegiate Press.
The marks of distinction were received in the following categories:
Writing and Editing
Photography, Art, Graphics, and Typography
Layout
The book received a better rating than the 2006-2007 book which won 4 awards. It received a First Class rating but only two marks of distinction.
We have one more step to go and that is to receive the highest ranking that the ACP awards, that is the status All American. We were very close to that title perhaps only 20 points away on a scale of 4,300 total points.
We will be aiming for the All American ranking and everyone on staff this year believes that it is within grasp.

Senior Portraits
Senior Portraits have been going amazing this year, we still have some sessions open for the fall semester here, from December 2nd-6th, got to ouryear.com and enter the school code 87158 to schedule an appointment.
If you didn't already know the senior portrait sessions are free for the sitting and will get you in the yearbook. If you are graduating between this semester through next summer get your portraits taken during this year to get into the 2008-2009 yearbook.
We haven't ironed out the dates yet but we will have another portrait session in the spring semester for those who can't make the December portraits or if they fill up completely. We are expecting to schedule them between late February and mid March. Check back in two weeks and we should have the dates available to schedule a session.

Red Cedar Log Fellowship
I would like to announce the Red Cedar Log Fellowship program. The program outline is as follows:
The Red Cedar Log Fellowship is a program dedicated to promoting quality journalism at Michigan State University. The program seeks individuals or groups who are working on high quality journalism during their tenure at Michigan State University.
Students or groups may apply for this fellowship starting the first day of classes until the day before Thanksgiving Break. The Red Cedar Log will then choose the recipient of the fellowship by no later than the last day before finals in December.
The Red Cedar Log will award one fellowship each year, worth one thousand dollars to be used by the recipient to work on their project. The recipient will have to finish the project and publish their material by the beginning of the following year. Any individual student may win the award once as an undergraduate, once as a graduate student, or once every two years for student groups.
Published material is requested to receive a byline, or acknowledgement in the publication to Red Cedar Log as the sponsoring news source.
To apply send to the Red Cedar Log an application and an essay explaining your project and why you should receive the award. Highlight why the story is of importance and is newsworthy, or why the project is contributing to journalism at MSU.
The Editorial Staff of the Red Cedar Log will judge applications and select the winner. If you receive the award you will then have to also create an expected expense sheet, highlighting how the money will be spent.
Return all applications to 311B in the Student Services Building.
Applications are available by email request, and soon on our web site.
