Grant Snider of the University of Missouri -- Kansas City has won this year's Charles M. Schulz Award for best college cartoonist. Snider will take home $10,000. I believe this is the same award where Frank Cho was once a winner, although any award that gives out $10,000 to a cartoonist doesn't need to establish its pedigree. There's a site here with a metric ton of Snider cartoons where I got the above Darwin illustration. I don't know which cartoons were being run in the student publications and which ones are being done just to do them or for other venues, but there's some lively work there. Snider beat out cartoonists from Kent State and traditional campus cartoon powerhouse University of Texas.
