Boise State University Office of Communications and Marketing Takes Home Two CASE District VIII Awards

The Office of Communications and Marketing will receive two Council for Advancement and Support of Education District VIII Awards on Feb. 23 during the annual conference in Boise.

Boise State was honored with a Bronze Award for Update in the E-mail or Web-based Newsletter and Magazines for Internal Audiences category. Update is produced twice weekly for Boise State faculty and staff by Jeremy Speer, Web designer for Communications and Marketing, and by the writers on the office’s staff.

In addition, Boise State won a Bronze Award in the Advertising Spots and Public Service Announcements category for its entry “Beyond the Blue, Too.” “Beyond the Blue, Too,” which was produced by Communications and Marketing director Frank Zang and the firm DonahoePace+Partners, is a television ad that has been shown for several months and aired during the Fiesta Bowl broadcast.

The CASE Juried Awards honor the best communications solutions in District VIII, which is the largest district and encompasses Oregon, Washington, Montana, Idaho, Alaska and the Canadian provinces of British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Nunavat, Yukon and the Northwest Territories. This year’s conference will be held from Feb. 21-23 in Boise.
