Ensuring a Strong Future
With the partnership and support of visionary donors, Medill can build on the strength of our reputation and continue to shape the future of the industry during this pivotal time. In addition to undergraduate and graduate scholarship support, Dean Charles Whitaker ’80, ’81 MS has identified the following priorities to move Medill forward:
Student Experiences
Medill is committed to being need-blind in experiences, and student experience funds help provide life-changing, hands-on opportunities to those with limited financial resources. To give all students access to experiential learning, these funds underwrite participation in conferences, extracurricular activities, research and other projects.
Research
Research funds support Medill’s research centers and institutes that expand our knowledge of journalism and IMC. Our research is done in collaboration with other faculty across Northwestern and partners in the journalism and marketing communications industries.
