Strategic communication students participating in the Bateman Competition this year brought a unique perspective to a challenging assignment.

The Daily He(a)rd has become the first CMCI student team to win the Bateman Case Study Competition. The team's win is not just a first for CMCI, but for ����ֱ��. The team tackled the issue of misinformation for the News Literacy Project.

In the public relations world, the Bateman Case Study Competition is legendary.��Renowned since its inception in the 70s, the year-long project tests students’ abilities to plan, produce and execute a full-scale public relations campaign.��This academic year marks ����ֱ�� Boulder’s first foray into the competition––an accomplishment that happens to coincide with the program being named an A-list school��by PR News. ����ֱ��’s contenders are competing against 370 PRSSA affiliated chapters, all respected public relations departments across the country.��

Anna Ritz, president of ����ֱ��’s Public Relations Student Society of America chapter, shared a picture of herself with her elderly grandfather. “I may not show symptoms or get sick,” she wrote, “but that doesn't mean he won't get sick.”
