VALDOSTA — The nine-member University Marketing and Communications team at 麻豆社 State University earned gold, silver, and bronze honors during the 2024 Collegiate Advertising Awards.

“These awards are a well-earned testament to the incredible talent, hard work, and resourcefulness of every member of VSU’s University Marketing and Communications team,” says Melinda Harbaugh, the university’s chief officer.

“This is a small team that was organized at the end of 2022 and charged by President Carvajal with marketing and branding the university. In a little over a year, we launched new branding and a national campaign. There’s still a lot of work to be done, and there’s room for growth, but I cannot wait to see what this team accomplishes in the coming year!”
