Awards Essentials

Welcome to the CASE District VIII Communications Awards, the annual program recognizing excellence in marketing and communications among our 130+ member institutions.

It was wonderful to see so many of you at the District VIII Conference in Portland, and to personally congratulate all of our winners. In a very competitive year, 148 out of 550 entries received Gold, Silver or Bronze recognition for their truly innovative, creative and inspiring communications projects.

Our Grand Gold category winners, representing the best in their group, were announced February 14, 2013 during the Communications Awards Celebration Luncheon at the CASE District VIII annual conference in Portland, Ore. And on February 15, we were pleased to award the University of Manitoba the 2013 Virginia Carter Smith Grand Crystal Award, recognizing the most outstanding entry of the year from among the nine Grand Gold category winners, as selected by a jury of CASE District VIII advancement professionals.
