"The UWIRE 100 are currently the best and brightest student journalists in the nation. They were selected from a pool of more than 825 nominations submitted by professionals, professors and peers (and some parents) from more than 135 schools. The UWIRE 100 panel evaluated each candidate based on proven excellence in a field of journalism and the quality and quantity of his or her nominations. Each member of our UWIRE 100 is among the brightest and most promising student journalists in his or her respective fields and shows:
— A proven dedication to both high ethical standards and advancing the field of journalism — An impressive journalism record with an emphasis on work completed in the 2008-2009 school year
Any college student -- undergraduate or graduate -- was eligible to become a UWIRE 100 honoree."
