Broadcast Fellowship opportunity for top minority journalism students

Are you a student who loves broadcast? Then this might be for you! The Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication is joining forces with The Meredith Corporation’s Phoenix television station, KPHO CBS 5, to offer a week-long fellowship program for top minority broadcast journalism students. The Meredith-Cronkite Fellowship Program allows a student to spend a week in January working at the news station with reporters, producers, editors, videographers and instructors from the Cronkite School. About 12 fellows are selected each year, and students from universities outside of the region receive a $2,000 stipend each while Cronkite students can receive a $500 stipend. The program will be Jan. 4-9, 2010. The deadline to apply is Oct. 12, 2009. For more information visit http://cronkite.asu.edu/experience/meredith.php.
