Journalism Education

“In 1879, when a group of publishers met in Columbia, Missouri, and suggested the need for a professorship of journalism, Joseph Pulitzer weighed in: ‘It is as absurd to talk of it as to talk of a professorship of matrimony, it being one of those things of which nothing can be learned by those who have never tried it.’ He later changed his mind. The Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism, which he founded, will celebrate its centennial in September 2012.”

—James McGrath Morris, journalist and author,
