This award will be given to a COMMST student, or students (major or minor), who produced an outstanding example of academic work in one or more COMMST classes during the previous year (2024-2025). That work might be a speech, performance, paper, or project that stands out for its brilliance, especially in terms of the way it meets the Communication Studies program objectives (https://uwaterloo.ca/communication-arts/about-our-department).
