(BALTIMORE – July 22, 2023) – The exceptional accomplishments of Morgan State University’s School of Global Journalism and Communication (SGJC) were on full display at the 2022 Chesapeake Associated Press Broadcasters Association Awards (CAPBA) and the NABJ 2023 Hall of Fame Induction as talented students, esteemed faculty and a recent class of 2023 graduate received top honors at two recently held industry recognition ceremonies. These prestigious recognitions serve as a testament to the unwavering dedication and remarkable talent exhibited by SGJC’s students, faculty, and alumni and the School’s direct hand in shaping the future of journalism and communication.

The 2022 CAPBA Awards, held on June 3, in Ocean City, showcased the outstanding work of television and radio stations across Maryland, Washington D.C., and Delaware.
