OSU-OKC's Orange Slice podcast nabs award

TULSA – OSU-OKC’s first foray into podcasting is now an award-winning production. 

The Oklahoma College Public Relations Association Awards were held Monday night, and OSU-OKC was among the honorees.

Oklahoma State University-Oklahoma City launched the Orange Slice podcast in fall 2023, and it received an award of excellence in the Campaign – General category.   

Despite no specific category for podcasting at OCPRA, Orange Slice was an entrant in the general campaign category. The podcast was up against campaigns of all types from colleges across Oklahoma. Entries were judged by panels of experts in their respective fields who are not OCPRA members.

Any project produced or implemented by an Oklahoma institution of higher education, whether public or private, was eligible for the contest.

The Oklahoma College Public Relations Association Awards Competition recognizes the best in contemporary communications from educational institutions -- both public and private -- throughout the State of Oklahoma.  This annual competition was created in 1992 by the OCPRA to reward achievement, recognize excellence and encourage a healthy competitive spirit by those who represent higher education to the public.  Materials are submitted by individuals who work in public relations, sports information, video, development or alumni affairs at any of the state’s higher education institutions.
