SPH This Year Wins Grand Gold CASE Award.
The 2019 issue of SPH This Year, the School of Public Health’s annual year-in-review magazine, won two Circle of Excellence Awards—Grand Gold and Silver—from the Council for Advancement and Support of Education (CASE) on June 12.
The publication represented a collaboration between Boston University’s Creative Services and the SPH Communications team. The magazine focused on the “Do” part of SPH’s core purpose “Think. Teach. Do. For the health of all.” and highlighted the school’s activism, advocacy, and engagement with communities.
The international awards program honors outstanding work in advancement services, alumni relations, communications, fundraising, and marketing at colleges, universities, independent schools, and affiliated nonprofit organizations.
The magazine received the Grand Gold—the program’s highest honor—for the Design: Multi-Page Publications category. The judges commented that the cover “instantly makes you want to open the book and read more.”
SPH This Year took silver for the Publications: Institutional Relations—President’s Reports and Annual Reports category, with the judges stating that the “excellent use of headlines, bold graphics, and photography convey an engaging, active institution.”
BU received a total of 16 awards, the highest number of awards by any higher education institution this year, including Grand Gold Awards for “Teaching’s Diversity Problem” in the Individual Photography category, and for BU Today publications in the Internal Publications (Digital) category.
CASE received 2,750 entries for consideration in 100 categories by 587 member institutions of higher education, independent schools, and nonprofits, from 28 countries. Judges gave more than 440 Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Grand Gold Awards. The winners were selected based on overall quality, innovation, use of resources, and the impact on the institution or its external and internal communities.
The 2020 issue of SPH This Year, which showcases the school’s commitment to shaping and advancing the future of public health, will be published in the fall.
