JMC School Overview
The William Allen White School of Journalism and Mass Communications is at the forefront of the communication evolution. Our students and graduates think beyond the headlines, digging deeper into the content and communication channels that directly impact every aspect of our lives. Our students and researchers contribute across various realms such as securing personal information in the digital age, reporting in news deserts and assisting readers in identifying misinformation.

We focus on the skills, passion and integrity needed to thrive in today's ever-changing media world through experiential learning and research. Faculty and students work with a variety of audiences, including those often left out of the digital space to create connections that keep citizens informed about topics that affect their everyday lives and assist readers in identifying misinformation.

Student Emergency Support
Students often contact us for financial, personal and mental emergencies. Whether it is $10 to afford a bus ticket home, providing food for our students through our nutrition nook to help fight food insecurity on campus or other simple acts of kindness, we support our students when emergencies arise. Please consider a gift supporting the student emergency fund to ensure they have the support they need in the face of adversity.

Journalism Scholarships
Many of our students face financial barriers, and scholarship funds enable students to obtain an education they may not have access to otherwise. Scholarships support students in need, encourage diversity and attract and retain talent. Our top priority is ensuring students graduate and achieve their highest professional aspirations. Please consider a gift supporting student scholarships to help make their dreams come true.

Sports Media Fund
Support this growing concentration by providing opportunities beyond the classroom to help them compete in a competitive job field after graduation. Our sports media and society concentration goes beyond the game – it studies the impact of sports on society. Please consider a gift to make it possible for our students to travel to games, support local media with high school sports coverage and explore the impact of Name, Image and Likeness (NIL).
