President Sandoval talks with Reynolds School of Journalism Dean Al Stavitsky and Associate Professor Kari Barber about 100 years of journalism education

President Brian Sandoval hosts Reynolds School of Journalism Dean Al Stavitsky and Associate Professor of Electronic Media Kari Barber in this 11th episode of Sagebrushers. They discuss the history of journalism at the University of Nevada, Reno, which began with a class taught by Laura Ambler in the fall of 1922, and ways in which the school is commemorating the 100-year celebration. They also talk about “On the Record: A Century of Journalism Education at Nevada,” the 30-minute film produced by Barber in collaboration with Reynolds School students and faculty, which explores the evolution of the school through a century of challenge and change. This episode was recorded in December 2022. Sagebrushers is available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and other major podcast platforms, with a new episode every month.
