Building the Next Generation of Community and Investigative Journalists

 A panel discussion presented at the Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Communications Mid-Winter Conference in March 2022 at Oklahoma University in Norman, Oklahoma.

Our panel, Building the Next Generation of Community and Investigative Journalists, broke down how The Long Island Advocate (an independent student media site) was created to showcase student work that covers important issues to Long Island.

Each panelist (seen below) discussed their involvement with the site and their experiences with community and investigative journalism.
