Giving to the School

Your gift supports scholarships

Paying for a college education is tough for many of our students. Your contributions help support a number of scholarships that ease the financial burden and give them the support they need to take advantage of internships and other opportunities.

Because I feel press freedom is a worthy project and internships have been a wonderful experience for students, I permanently endowed the International Press Freedom Scholarship Fund.

Your gift supports the experiences that make our school special

Whether it’s a talk by a Hollywood producer, a conference highlighting 1960s media or a student organization trip to Chicago, your dollars help our students get the most out of their time here.

You also help fund research initiatives. Because of you, faculty are able to involve students in their projects, adding an extra dimension to their education and further preparing them for success.
