Garland Educator of the Year and CMA named him a Distinguished Adviser for newspaper advising at a four-year college or university.
Publications he advised, including a yearbook, a daily newspaper, a weekly newspaper, a literary magazine, a 25,000-watt radio station and a video outlet, won numerous awards including six Gold Crown awards from the Columbia Scholastic Press Association (four for yearbook and two for literary magazine) and nine Pacemaker Awards from the Associated Collegiate Press (four for yearbook and five for literary magazine).
