The longlists for the Smedias National Student Media Awards were published late last week. These can be found here.

As usual for the Smedias, the longlists are called “shortlists” — confusing many student journalists and likely needlessly getting people’s hopes up. As a note on the awards’ site says: “Shortlists for the awards are now available, see below. Final nominations will be posted in the week April 5-9.”
