On Thursday, the Kring \u2013 the association of editors-in-chief of higher education media \u2013 presented its annual awards for the best journalistic productions. The awards were handed out during the Kring conference. This year, there were three categories: photo, column and feature.<\/p>\n

The award for best feature was won by Annebelle de Bruijn and Marjolein van der Veldt of Delta for their investigation<\/a> \u2018Victims of social insecurity always come off worst at TU Delft\u2019.<\/p>\n

According to the jury, \u2018the narrators didn\u2019t shy away from guiding the reader through a world of fear \u2018. In their article, the authors highlighted the social insecurity faced by staff at the university and showed how difficult it is for victims to speak out.<\/p>\n

Column and photo<\/h2>

The column<\/a> category was won by Adriaan Duiveman of Vox (the magazine of Radboud University) for his piece on \u2018contrarian academics\u2019. According to the jury, Duiveman writes \u2018with precision and a touch of wit\u201d, and \u2018in just a few hundred words, he deftly dismantles overzealous critics of woke<\/em> culture\u2019.<\/p>\n

For the first time this year, attendees of the Kring conference were also able to vote for the best photo<\/a>. The prize went to Romain Beker, photographer for Folia (of the University of Amsterdam). In March, he captured an image of a pro-Israeli UvA alumnus and a pro-Palestinian protester, during a moment when around forty UvA alumni returned their diplomas in protest against the university\u2019s policy on Israel.<\/p>\n\n\t
