Melissa Yu is the winner of first prize in the middle school category of C‑SPAN’s StudentCam 2011 competition. Her video, “Net Neutrality: The Federal Government’s Role in Our Online Community,” is an eight-minute look at the push for regulation of Internet service with an emphasis appropriate for students on how the three branches of government have each been involved in the story up to now.

If you haven’t been following along, or if you want a refresher on net neutrality regulation, here’s a better video than I could have produced in eighth grade. Or now. Congratulations, Melissa Yu!
