Former Denver Post editorial page editor Chuck Plunkett, the new director of CMCI’s investigative student news program Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØNews 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, Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØNews Corps, to produce journalism in partnership with professional media organizations into perpetuity with the establishment of the Scripps Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØNews 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.
