The Donald W. Reynolds Foundation has awarded a five-year, $1.67 million grant to Arizona State University to establish a visiting business journalism professors program.
It will be administered through the Donald W. Reynolds National Center for Business Journalism, headquartered at the Cronkite School.
The Reynolds Visiting Professorships will be modeled on successful programs at the Cronkite School and Washington and Lee University.
“Our goal in establishing the Reynolds Center for Business Journalism in the Cronkite School at ASU was to have a transformative impact on business reporting and the profession of business journalism,” said Steve Anderson, president of the Donald W. Reynolds Foundation, in a statement. “The faculty and staff at the Cronkite School have done such an extraordinary job in meeting that goal that our trustees have now approved additional funding to expand the reach of the program into 11 additional journalism schools across the country under the direction and leadership of the Cronkite School.”
Andrew Leckey, president of the Reynolds National Center for Business Journalism and Reynolds Endowed Chair in Business Journalism, will oversee the program. Leckey will collaborate with the Reynolds Endowed Chairs in Business Journalism at the University of Missouri-Columbia, the University of Nevada, Reno, and Washington and Lee University in identifying other top schools to participate.
