MIPA’s Individual Category Contests are judged by journalism educators, professional journalists and college journalism students who gather for a day at Michigan State University. It’s a great opportunity to network, and be inspired. You’re invited to join the fun!
We will host an orientation followed by live judging work sessions from 9 a.m.–3 p.m.
Never been a judge? New to journalism advising? No problem! You have what it takes to be one of our contest judges. We’ll teach you anything specific that you might need to know and we’ll pair you with an experienced judge. No one works alone!
Judging MIPA contests is a great way to see some of the amazing journalism that students across Michigan are producing for their newspapers, yearbooks, broadcast programs and news websites. Advisers who attend tell us every year that it’s one of the most valuable things they do. You’ll leave inspired and with great ideas that you can put to use in your own classroom.
