Peabody College’s “Quick Learners, High Achievers: Study of Mathematically Precocious Youth,” which is narrated by Emmy Award-winning actor Andre Braugher, received three nominations. Lyle Jackson was recognized in the Informational/Instructional Program and Editor/Program categories, and Jack Isenhour was recognized in the Writer category.

“Vanderbilt University Connects,” Vanderbilt’s public service announcement for 2017-18, was nominated in the Promo Spot/Image category. Named on the nomination are Zack Eagles, Pat Slattery and Amy Wolf in the Division of Communications, with scores of people across Vanderbilt communications departments contributing to its concept and execution.
