CU News Corps
An immigrant鈥檚 story becomes a cultural journey for CMCI students.
Former Denver Post editorial page editor Chuck Plunkett, the new director of CMCI鈥檚 investigative student news program CU News Corps, knows the real-world challenges of working for a major newspaper. After all, he just came from one.
A $2.5 million gift from Bill and Kathy Scripps will allow a specialized student news course, CU News Corps, to produce journalism in partnership with professional media organizations into perpetuity with the establishment of the Scripps CU News Corps Endowment.
From fact checking the 2016 election to reporting on crime, students in a specialized journalism course use emerging storytelling techniques to investigate Colorado issues.
