| Summary |
Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) are facing challenges to their continued existence on several fronts. One is fiscally, as federal funding for education has been cut and the responsibility for paying for higher education has been levied on students and parents. This book explores journalism accreditation at HBCUs and is informed by many years of research into how journalism units have acquired and lost accreditation. It will be of interest to faculty, students and administrators of journalism studies. Jerry Crawford II is an Associate Professor and the Director of the Multicultural Program in the William Allen White School of Journalism at the University of Kansas. He teaches graduate and undergraduate classes consisting of mass media theory, ethics, multimedia reporting, and special topics. Dr. Crawford has published over 20 peer-reviewed journal articles, book chapter, and conference proceedings (combined) and has presented his work at over a dozen conferences -- receiving paper awards. He has served in several capacities in AEJMC, including being a member of the board of directors |
