We love seeing our past Student Production Award winners start their professional careers! When University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign senior, Piper Pascarella, graduates this May, she’ll be headed to Rockefeller Center as a PA on “Meet the Press NOW!” WOW!

From Piper: “This first professional step makes all the late nights and early mornings at UI7 Newsroom and CNN completely worth it, and I’m beyond excited to contribute to the gold standard journalism that defines the Meet the Press franchise.”

We sure hope Piper takes her Mid-America EMMY Crystal Pillar with her on her big move to NYC!
