Campus Enterprises is proud to announce its recognition at the prestigious 2024 Collegiate Advertising Awards, earning both Gold and Silver honors for its outstanding work in higher education marketing.
The Nutrition Around the World dining event received Gold in its category, recognized for creative excellence and impactful engagement. Hosted by NC State Dining during National Nutrition Month, the event celebrated global flavors while promoting healthy eating habits. Featuring culturally inspired dishes from Asia, Africa, Europe and the Americas, the event also included educational signage, interactive displays and tabling with dietitians to help students explore diverse cuisines and learn about balanced meals in a fun, engaging way.
Additionally, the division’s Orientation Guide was awarded Silver, celebrating its clear, engaging and student-centered approach to welcoming new members of the campus community. The guide, which is distributed to parents during orientation, was designed to provide an accessible, visually appealing resource for navigating the first-year experience.
“We’re incredibly proud of our team and the creativity, strategy and care that went into these projects,” said Jennifer Gilmore, director of strategic marketing and communication for Campus Enterprises. “It’s always rewarding to see our work resonate with both our campus community and national peers.”
