“Thanks to my experience working with The Maroon and Wolf Magazine, I was named as a National Finalist in the Society of Professional Journalists Mark of Excellence Awards for a story I wrote for The Maroon, meaning that I placed in the top three in the nation for feature writing. In turn, I was able to land my dream internship at Renaissance Publishing, where I worked on New Orleans Magazine, Louisiana Life Magazine, and several more publications. I can honestly say that if it weren’t for my supportive professors and the top-notch Mass Communication students I’m surrounded by every day at Loyola, I wouldn’t have the confidence or inspiration I need to succeed in my field and in the real world.” Shannon Donaldson, Mobile, AL Mass Communication, Journalism ‘14 • Soceity of Professional Journalists Mark of Excellence National Finalist • Internship: Renaissance Publishing
