ACES: The Society for Editing announces award winners and more at 2019 annual conference

PROVIDENCE, RHODE ISLAND – Award winners, scholarship recipients, and AP Style updates were just some of the announcements made at the 23rd annual conference of ACES: The Society for Editing (ACES) in Providence, Rhode Island, March 28-30.
The Associated Press’ announcement of its updates for the 2019 stylebook resulted in audible gasps from the audience present at the conference. Updates included the change from spelling out “percent” to allowing the use of the “%” sign and the removal of the hyphen from dual heritage terms such as “Asian American” and “African American.” Another significant update is a new umbrella entry called race-related coverage. “The new section is intended to pull together similar, scattered entries, update guidance, and attach more importance to the topic,” said Paula Froke, lead editor at the AP Stylebook.
At the 2019 ACES Education Fund Spelling Bee on March 27, 12 spellers tackled recent dictionary entries, words of Scottish origin, and commonly misspelled words. The winner was eventually crowned when Beth Chapple defeated Kate Karp in the final round. All funds for the Spelling Bee went to the ACES Education Fund, to provide scholarships for students. Lingofy sponsored the event. The Spelling Bee brought in more than $1,200, said ACES Secretary Neil Holdway. Learn more in our announcement.
The 2019 winner of the Bill Walsh Scholarship is Nancy Coleman, a University of Missouri senior
