Job #1 at the University of Missouri School of Journalism (also known as Mizzou) is to produce students ready to deliver quality work from the jump.Some 2,000 students are working — not just studying — to graduate and then shoulder the responsibility of informing the populace. If you work as a journalist in the U.S., you are at least tangentially aware of Mizzou’s impact on journalism. The clout is not just in the school’s brand and reputation as one of the most prestigious J-schools in the country but also in the names of its alums. Scores of Mizzou grads have won Pulitzer Prizes over the decades. Among Mizzou’s journalism graduates are executives at major news companies and household-name anchors you’ve seen on television.
