TY Times, Moville Community College | View finalists work

According to Michael Foley, Chairman of the Press Pass Judging Panel:

“Despite the very high quality of entries in this year’s competition, the judges were unanimous in choosing this year’s overall winner. The team behind Moville Community College’s ‘TY Times’ should be immensely proud of themselves for publishing a student newspaper of such high quality. The publication stood out immediately for its attention-grabbing front page, excellent news and production values, and wide range of content which included opinion pieces, local news reports, interviews and sports news and features, and even ‘letters to the editor’. It is clear that a huge amount of work went in to creating this excellent production so congratulations to the students.
