2 - 3 weken
Finally, how are administrators handling these challenges during the pandemic and their own health and well-being?This book explores journalism accreditation at HBCUs and is informed by many years of research into how journalism units have acquired and lost accreditation.
“In this much needed and timely volume, Dr. Jerry Crawford II focuses on HBCUs with journalism or communication programs that sought professional accreditation from AEJMC. Covering a nearly 40-year timespan, the book is well researched and well documented. The book is a must-read for administrators and faculty of HBCUs. It also is enlightening to scholars of predominantly white institutions and minority-serving institutions.”
—Hong Cheng, Ph.D., professor and dean, School of Communication, Loyola University Chicago
“In the ever-changing world of higher education, there’s no greater challenge for colleges and universities than to offer a credible, respected, dollar-worthy degree and accreditation provides that valuable stamp of approval. Journalism at Historically Black Colleges and Universities-Governance and Accreditation offers a valuable, thoughtful perspective on the myriad challenges faced by minority-servinginstitutions today to earn and maintain that accreditation.”
—Barbara Hines, Professor Emerita, Howard University
Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) are facing challenges to their continued existence on several fronts. One is fiscally, as federal funding for education has been cut and the responsibility for paying for higher education has been levied on students and parents.
This book explores journalism accreditation at HBCUs and is informed by many years of research into how journalism units have acquired and lost accreditation. It will be of interest to faculty, students and administrators of journalism studies.
