When asked how she felt about the win, she added, “I feel happy and fulfilled… this is a win in general for UIMSA Press.”
Similarly, the winner of the Most Energetic Inductee Award, Joshua Oyetoro, shared that in his journey to becoming a campus journalist, he had to skip classes, work late nights to meet deadlines, and conduct several interviews. He noted that the award “came as a surprise,” adding that he is “grateful to God” and sees it as “a validation.”
Both awardees expressed gratitude and surprise at their wins.
