"Exploring Your World with Geosciences," a recruiting video for Fort Hays State University's Department of Geosciences, has won a Finalist Award in the 24th annual Telly Awards. FHSU's award was in the recruitment category.

The Telly Awards was founded in 1980, to showcase and give recognition to outstanding non-network and cable commercials. The competition was expanded several years ago to include film and video productions.

The award recognizes the work of six people at FHSU: Andrew Tincknell, video specialist with the university's Center for Teaching Excellence and Learning Technology; Jared Schiel, CTELT instructional technologist; Dr. Paul Phillips, professor of geosciences; Dr. Kenneth Neuhauser, professor of geosciences; Dr. John Heinrichs, associate professor of geosciences; and Dennis King, director of CTELT.
