Maureen Rooney, a Duquesne student and C2 board member, looks at entries for the first-ever Pittsburgh C2 Student Creative Competition, a project launched by the Pittsburgh Council of the American Association of Advertising Agencies and the Pittsburgh AdFed. The contest, for communications students from seven Pittsburgh-area universities and colleges, charged competitors with the task of coming up with advertisements to make Pittsburgh more appealing in the minds of young people.

St. Vincent students Steven Derr and Michael Crane came up with this winning ad, featuring a view of the city skyline from Mt. Washington.

Point Park University put in a stunning #4 performance at the Division Competition in April in New York City. The reprise of their presentation in the Pgh College Advertising Competition proved them to be the best!

St. Vincent Ad Team Presentation -"Discover the Flip Side of Florida" was the St. Vincent theme which featured the state inverted as the "F" in Florida. Very creative!
