Arts and Culture

2026 has been an excellent year for the Sinclair Clarion!

Sinclair Clarion Wordmark
Sinclair Community College's student run news magazine and website, The Clarion, has earned numerous awards this year! Lead by Clarion Advisor/Professor Jessica Graue, this team of students has been nominated for, and won, many accolades!

Chosen from 140 applicants, Sinclair was voted one of ten top community college media outlets in the United States by the A-Mark Foundation. As one of the ten awardees, Sinclair received additional funds to be used for The Clarion and for one annual Clarion student scholarship.

The 2026 Ohio New Media Association Awards also recognized Sinclair's Clarion with top honors in several categories (6 awards to Sinclair of the total 9 awards announced). Sinclair was named runner-up for the College Newspaper of the Year, which was a huge achievement considering they were the only community college represented!

Most recently, the Ohio Society of Professional Journalists (SPJ) awarded Jessica Graue the 2026 Emil Dansker Award for Outstanding Achievement in Journalism!

The LCS Division is thrilled for The Clarion, Jessica Graue, and the big year they're having! For more information about The Clarion please visit them at sinclairclarion.com/ or facebook.com/sinclairclarion.
