Our next partner is the Missouri School of Journalism. The Missouri School of Journalism, the world’s first, is the international leader in journalism education. Some of the best journalists in the world have learned their profession through the Missouri Method, which provides practical hands-­on training in seven professional news outlets – Columbia Missourian, Global Journalist, KOMU-­TV, KBIA-­FM, Missouri Business Alert, Missouri Digital News, Vox Magazine -­ and two strategic communication agencies – AdZou and Mojo Ad. The School works with the Donald W. Reynolds Journalism Institute to help create a bright future for journalism. RJI, along with the 20 other institutes and centers at the School, provide numerous research, networking, collaboration opportunities and other resources. Students and faculty earned top awards and recognitions – more than 560 in the 2014-­15 academic year – from international, national and other organizations. Thank you so much for your support!
