FPU students win local ADDY awards

Four Fresno Pacific University students won honors in the 2016 Fresno Advertising Federation ADDY Awards, presented March 4.

In all, FPU students took home seven awards—including one gold—in six student categories. All winners of gold and silver awards go on to district competition, with judging later in March in San Francisco. A gold or silver at that level qualifies the student for the national contest.
