A program for a gala event honoring top university donors won Washington State University the In-Print Best of Show award for digitally printed pieces.

Thanks to social media, Rigby says, most of his staff knew about the in-plant's victory before he returned to work with the trophy.

"There was a great excitement in our shop on Monday when I came back," he reports.

The 45-employee in-plant, with 20 part-timers, has been entering the In-Print contest for decades and amassed nearly 100 awards over the years, Rigby says—but never the top prize. He brought the glass Best of Show obelisk around to each person who had worked on the project and invited staff to his office to watch the video showing the judges picking their piece. The in-plant held a special celebration for the client that ordered the program, the WSU Foundation.
