Posted February 27, 2002
IOWA CITY -- The University of Iowa Foundation's Communications department has won 13 awards for excellence in advertising and design from the Cedar Rapids Advertising Federation at the 33rd annual ADDY Awards. In addition to a Judge's Choice award -- the second-highest honor -- and a Best of Category award, the foundation received six ADDY Awards and five "Citation of Excellence" honors for materials ranging from annual reports to newsletters. The 2001 ADDYs were announced and presented at an awards event in Crowne Plaza Hotel in Cedar Rapids on February 9. UI Foundation senior vice president Alan Swanson said the high number of awards reflects the quality of the foundation's graphics and editorial staffs. "One of the UI Foundation's fundamental missions is to convey the importance of private support for the University of Iowa, and our communications professionals -- led by vice president Susan Shullaw -- perform that task with creativity and distinction," said Swanson. "We are proud to have assembled such a talented, dedicated staff." The Judge's Choice award, in the category of ad campaigns appearing in consumer magazines and using fewer than four colors, was given for a series of ads that ran in the UI Alumni Association's Iowa Alumni Magazine. The series (ad #1, ad #2, ad #3), based on Aesop's Fables, was designed by Danette Angerer and Rose Garfinkle, written by Leah Klevar and illustrated by Melissa Arp. The UI Foundation received the following awards:
