Berry College adviser and technology specialist Steven Hames won a 2016 Honor Roll Broadcast Adviser Award
from the College Media Association for his work with Berry’s Viking
Fusion multimedia website.
“It’s humbling to receive an award for
doing a job that I love,” Hames said. “Looking back at Viking Fusion’s
accomplishments during my five years at Berry, it makes me proud that I was
able to guide them to such success.”
Viking Fusion, for which Hames has served
as adviser since 2011, is a student-run enterprise intended to inform and
entertain Berry students and the larger community surrounding the school. The
site has won multiple awards during Hames’ tenure, including Southeast
Regional Emmy Awards, the Society of Professional Journalists' Mark of Excellence
Awards, the CMA Pinnacle Awards and the College Broadcasters Inc. National
Student Production Awards. Hames earned the Honor Roll Adviser Role by distinguishing
himself through service.
“I get to see up close every day his
dedication to our students, his leadership of our co-curricular Viking Fusion
multimedia news and entertainment hub, and his collaboration across the college
to create teaching and learning opportunities for our majors,” Berry department of communication chair Brian Carroll said.
