A heads-up from L. Patricia Ice, our resident attorney and columnist on immigration matters: Deadline: January 28, 2008
USC
Annenberg's Institute for Justice and Journalism invites ethnic media journalists to apply for its 2008 fellowships, focused on "Immigration: Reporting the Full Story."
IJJ will award ten fellowships to ethnic media journalists in early 2008 to enable them to report on the complexities of immigration issues with depth and context. Selected fellows will participate in a March conference in Tucson, Arizona, that will include field reporting experiences along the U.S.-Mexico border.
A follow-up session will be held in June at John Jay College in New York City.
Experienced print, television, radio, and online journalists employed by ethnic media news organizations are eligible to apply for the fellowships. All travel-related and professional development expenses will be covered by IJJ.
Application guidelines and forms are available at the
IJJ Web site.
