A night to remember at JAN

Staff and students from the journalism program at St. Clair College held their annual Journalism Awards Night at the Caboto Club on April 20.

The hall was filled with staff, students and members of local news companies such as the Windsor Star, CTV News, AM 800 CKLW, CBC, TV Cogeco and Lakeshore News. Dinner served by the Caboto Club was followed by an award ceremony acknowledging first and second year journalism students and students in the Media Convergence program.

The guest speaker for the evening was Dan MacDonald. He is a graduate of the journalism program at St. Clair, host on 93.9 The River and host and producer of a weekly music show Hear + Now on AM 800 CKLW.

Lastly, the night honoured Karen Fallon, an instructor at the MediaPlex who is retiring after 22 years of teaching. The staff and students presented Fallon with gifts as a token of appreciation for all she has contributed to the Mediaplex.
