In recognition of Dr. O'Brien's article, the panel of judges from the Tabbies said, "The passion, knowledge and care that the writer brings to this piece punches, fast, through the reactive-responsive, illustrative design of this long-read feature. Wonderful first-person style of writing, which works for an article such as this. Not least, what an impeccable focus on design, inherently necessary to pulling off something as complex as this deep, 'eye-candy' feature. ... Extremely well-written and went beyond a mere history lesson. The writer wove words in with the artwork to form a cohesive vision."

These recent awards are part of a long list of past honors for the association's publication. Past awards won by the EDUCAUSE Review include previous APEX, Azbee, EXCEL, and MAGGIE Awards, as well as Magnum Opus, Ozzie, and Tabbie Awards and honors from the Art Directors Club of Metropolitan Washington, D.C., the PRINT Regional Design Annual, and the Colorado Society for Association Executives.
