传媒学院, Communication 和 Information at the University of Colorado Boulder has named five exceptional journalists to its 2024-25 class of Ted Scripps Fellows in Environmental Journalism.
“This year’s terrific incoming class of Ted Scripps Fellows hails from around the country 和 works across multiple platforms, including photography, 播客, 纪录片, long-form narrative 和 daily news,希拉里·罗斯纳说, assistant director of the Center for Environmental Journalism—which oversees the Scripps Fellows program—和 a teaching assistant professor at CMCI. ”在一起, they bring decades of experience 和 expertise to CU Boulder, where they will learn from university researchers 和 share their knowledge with the community.”
成立于1993年, the Ted Scripps Fellowship has been based at the University of Colorado Boulder since 1997. 这个项目, which is supported by a grant from the Scripps Howard Fund, aims to give full-time journalists working in any medium the knowledge 和 tools to report on today’s pressing environmental issues in ways that resonate with diverse audiences. Over a nine-month period, fellows attend classes at the University of Colorado Boulder, participate in weekly seminars 和 field trips, 和 pursue their own journalistic projects on a wide range of environmental topics.
The incoming class includes:
