The Chuff List
Tigers cannot purr. Instead, they CHUFF – a friendly vocalization that is unique to tigers.
Journalism students are often behind the camera covering student life, athletics and organizations. Sometimes their hard work and dedication is overlooked as they continue to shine a spotlight on what is happening in the school. Therefore, journalism students who have received awards and achievements will be recognized on THE CHUFF LIST.
