When asked how she felt after receiving the award dual enrollment student Barbara Pomales said ”It always feels good to win something you have wanted for a long time. Being recognized by other television and film professionals is real affirmation that what I worked on as a student was at a professional level.”  Dual enrollment student Marino Davis said  “After only one year of editing I have already received an award for my work. WOW!”

Leonardo Gonzalez and Silvia Cordoba each won an award for the work at the 2005 Crystal Reel Awards. Out of the 5 submissions, 2 received awards one silver and one bronze. Congratulations to both.
