– Leeza Kuznetsova, University of Virginia 2011

“The opportunities and information I took home from Media Scholars Week cannot be found within a classroom.”

— Dillon Lohmer, University of Wisconsin-Madison 2012


“The Washington Media Scholars program was a fantastic opportunity for me. Just working on the actual case allowed me to experience a section of political campaigns and media research that I had not really been aware of. I developed skills that were above and beyond what my academic experience had provided me with.”

— Maria Bianchi, Michigan State University 2011


“The Washington Media Scholars Program is a great chance for students to combine theory with practice. For students to get access to some of the best minds in the business is simply an incredible opportunity.”

— Ken Goldstein, Ph.D., Professor of Political Science, University of Wisconsin-Madison
