In Common Magazine Garners First Golden Trumpet for NEIU

The staff of the NEIU alumni magazine, In Common, was honored with a Golden Trumpet Award from the Publicity Club of Chicago. While the University has received a number of Silver Trumpet Awards in the past, this is the first time NEIU has earned this top honor.

Northeastern competed against other universities, including the Illinois Institute of Technology, University of Illinois at Chicago and DePaul University, as well as public relations firms such as Edelman and GolinHarris.
