Three Berry College students, including two from Lilburn, recently won a 2011 National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences Southeast Emmy Award.

Seniors Alex Middleton and Steven Walker of Lilburn and Thomas Yungerberg of Canton earned the award for their student-produced comedy show, "The Conference Room." All three students produce, write and star in the show.

"The Conference Room" is broadcast on Viking Fusion, a student-run converged media website.
