LOS ANGELES—The University of Southern California (USC) is
presenting a first-of-its-kind, live online summit to discuss
school violence and to forge new ideas and conversations that
advance school safety.
The Education Writers Association is delighted to announce the
addition of Kim Clark to its staff as an assistant director.
Clark, a longtime national journalist most recently with Money
Magazine, will play a leading role in directing EWA programming
on education beyond high school.
“We are thrilled to have a journalist of Kim’s caliber joining
our staff,” said EWA Executive Director Caroline Hendrie. “Her
energy and experience will be a huge boon to our efforts to
support the important work of our journalist members in newsrooms
across the country.”
The Society of Professional Journalists, the Education
Writers Association, and 28 other journalism and open
government organizations sent a letter
today to Sen. John Thune (R-SD) and Sen. Bill Nelson (D-FL)
urging the Senate Commerce Committee to hold a hearing on the
state of media in the United States.
In an effort to deepen its understanding of diversity and
inclusion issues, the Education Writers Association recently
fielded a survey asking journalist members to share their views
and experiences. A total of 170 EWA members responded to the
survey, although not every respondent answered every question.
The findings provide insights into current perceptions and
priorities among education reporters, as well as early data to
inform discussions by the EWA Diversity and Inclusion Task Force.
