Walter Nagel (right) at the 2014 Symposium chatting with Publisher Mario Prusina

We’ve learned that Walter Nagel, long-time supporter of the AWNA Symposium has retired from SAIT. Walter presented the Photographic Awards for many years and also judged the Awards of Excellence – Best Feature Column By a Local Writer. At SAIT he was a mentor to many students who have become part of our member newspapers’ staff. The symposium was always well attended by his students, at his encouragement.

If you care to leave a comment or share a memory, we’ll do do our best to get them shared with Walter.
