Local Ad Fed Awards given to USF students

LAKELAND, FL (January 12, 2006) - Two University of South Florida undergraduates, one from the Lakeland campus and one from Tampa, received scholarships this semester supported by the Imperial Polk Advertising Federation (IPAF).

The students received William E. Gregory Scholarships that totaled $2,000. Eligible students must be pursuing a degree in advertising, marketing, graphic design or communications and enrolled full-time at a Florida university, college or technical school. Students must also have a 3.0 GPA or higher. Recipients for 2006 are:
  • Kristin Dailey, a junior marketing major from USF Lakeland;
  • Angie Maquinn Birdwell, a senior mass communications major with a concentration in public relations from USF Tampa;
  • Amanda Holleyman, a senior communications-advertising major with a minor in graphic design from Florida Southern College; and
  • Tammy Sizemore, a commercial arts major from Traviss Career Center.
The purpose of the Imperial Polk Advertising Federation’s Scholarship Program is to encourage academic excellence and promote degree completion for students majoring in the advertising/marketing field at a Florida university, college or technical school. The scholarships were awarded Tuesday, January 10 during their monthly meeting. Following the awards presentation, the recipients toured the Print Shop of Publix Corporate Offices and received insight into one aspect of the marketing field. The scholars experienced the full process a marketing publication must go through, including design, pre-press, printing, binding and packaging.

USF Lakeland is a member of IPAF, and supports faculty, staff and student participation.
