An impressive group of journalism students were honored at the 41st annual Journalism Day in spring 2007.
The Department recognized the achievements of students in the print, public relations, broadcast and online concentrations.
Thanks to the generosity of our donors – alums and media professionals alike, who recognize the value of a CSULB degree - the Department of Journalism was able to present 10 individual scholarships to 17 students to help them defray the high costs of university education.
We appreciate everyone who made this assistance possible, and congratulate these exceptional students:
