On EWA’s Ed Beat blog,
reporter Dan Golden gives a behind-the-scenes account of how he
and fellow Bloomberg News journalists John Hechinger and John
Lauerman spent 18 months investigating the nation’s for-profit
colleges. The project, which detailed questionable enrollment
practices and staggering student-debt loads in the industry, won
EWA’s Fred M. Hechinger Grand Prize for Distinguished Education
Reporting.
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Bloomberg News has won the top prize in the
National Awards for Education Reporting for “Education Inc.,” a
searing investigative look at for-profit colleges and
universities.
EWA announced the winners of the Fred M. Hechinger Grand Prize
for Distinguished Education Reporting at its annual conference in
New Orleans on April 9. It includes a cash prize of $1,500.
The Education Writers Association announces the winners of the
2010 National Awards for Education Reporting. The prestigious
annual competition honors the best coverage of education in print
and broadcast media. It is the only independent contest of its
kind in the United States.
Public education was one of the largest beneficiaries of the $814
billion American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, but
questions remain about how – and whether – some $100 billion in
federal stimulus funds for education have made much difference.
