PITT NEWS EDITOR IN CHIEF RECEIVES HONOR
PITTSBURGH, Dec. 11 -- Harold Turner, editor-in-chief of The Pitt News, the University of Pittsburgh student newspaper, has received an honorable mention in the 1998 Associated Collegiate Press (ACP) competition.
A senior writing student at Pitt, Turner graduated from Liberty High School in Bethlehem, PA in 1994. While in high school he played baseball, tennis, was on the chess team, and was a member of the National Honor Society.
