\"\"<\/a>Alan J. Borsuk, senior fellow in law and public policy at the Law School, was named a winner Monday in a major national education journalism competition. Borsuk was honored for his role in the project, \u201cBuilding a Better Teacher,\u201d which ran on the front page of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel<\/em> for eight consecutive Sundays in November and December.<\/p>\n

The Education Writers Association, a national organization of education journalists, named the project the best series of 2010 by a large publication. The series resulted from collaboration between the Law School; the Hechinger Report, an education journalism organization that is part of Columbia University; and the Journal Sentinel<\/em>, including reporters Amy Hetzner, Erin Richards, and Becky Vevea.<\/p>\n

Borsuk helped design the plan for the series and wrote three of the eight pieces. Borsuk, a longtime reporter and editor for the Milwaukee Journal<\/em> and Milwaukee Journal Sentinel<\/em>, joined the Law School staff in 2009. He writes and edits pieces for Marquette Lawyer<\/em> magazine, writes for the Law School\u2019s web pages, and is involved in a variety of public policy activities. He also writes a Sunday column on education for the Journal Sentinel<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The education writers\u2019 contest is judged by experts who are independent of the publications that enter. This year\u2019s judging was directed by Tamara M. Cooke Henry, of the Philip Merrill College of Journalism at the University of Maryland.<\/p>\n
