Great students and faculty stand at the heart of a great J-School.

As the spring semester comes to an end, Newmark J-School students are heading off to summer internships at top media outlets around the world. Our unique summer internship program gives students on-the-job experience and ensures they are paid for their time and work – something no other school can say. 

We are able to do this only because of your support. 

Today, when you make a gift to the J-School, you enable us to provide an exceptional education to our nation’s future journalists. Take former student Lauren Costantino from the Class of 2019. Lauren just won the 2023 Pulitzer Prize in Editorial Writing as part of a Miami Herald editorial team that held Florida public officials accountable for failing to deliver on long-promised, taxpayer-funded services.

Your contributions also help us to attract and retain world-class faculty like Professor Yoruba Richen, director of our documentary program, who recently won a Peabody Award for her film, “The Rebellious Life of Mrs. Rosa Parks,” and Professor Masha Gessen, a multi-award-winning Russian-American journalist and author who will join our school in the fall.

Your dollars go a long way in recruiting, enrolling, and graduating one of the most diverse student populations of any graduate journalism school in the nation, where about 75% of students receive scholarship support. 

Please consider making a gift to the Newmark J-School today so we can continue to further journalism that better serves the public. Thank you for your support!
