Glasgow leads way in student press awards

The University of Glasgow is leading the shortlist in this year's Scottish Student Press Awards.

The centre appears nine times in the shortlist for annual awards, closely followed by the University of Edinburgh with eight appearances.

Now in its 13th year, the competition seeks to showcase and reward the best student writing and publishing in Scotland with the 2009 event welcoming back the best college publication prize.

Run by Glasgow-based daily The Herald, there are nine different prizes up for grabs with work experience placements on offer to individual winners while team prizes will receive £100 towards their publication.

The student journalist of the year will be selected from the best writing categories and offered a four-week internship at The Herald and £500 cash.

The news writer prize is this year awarded in memory of Calum Macdonald, a journalist with The Herald who died of cancer aged 31 in October.

The awards ceremony takes place on 26 May in Glasgow. The full shortlist is:
