Creative teams representing two offices at Stan State earned 13 honors in the MarCom Awards 2019 competition, which released its annual list of honorees last week.

The Office of Extended and International Education claimed eight awards, including two at MarCom’s highest level of platinum for advertisements produced for the University’s MBA and EMBA programs. The office also was given gold awards for promotional work executed for the Short-Term Summer 2020 Business English Program, the RN-to-BSN program and for ads produced to highlight the partnerships between Stan State and San Joaquin Delta College, in addition to three honorable mention awards.

The Office of Communications and Public Affairs received a platinum award for its “Warriors Assemble” internal communications campaign for the University’s WASC reaffirmation of accreditation effort. CPA also won three gold awards: for a YouTube video series that was part of Warriors Assemble; for an advertisement highlighting the University’s as one University with two campus locations in Turlock and Stockton; and for the STAN Magazine cover story on the efforts of faculty member Steve Arounsack to incorporate visual media as a key component of his anthropology courses. The fall 2019 edition of STAN Magazine featuring Arounsack was awarded a separate honorable mention.
