  • Follow the best practices of journalistic excellence and ethics across new forms of media in pursuit of truth, accuracy, fairness, and diversity
  • Demonstrate entrepreneurial approaches and envision future business models for sports media
  • Exhibit culturally competent interviewing skills

“We were fortunate to be able to tap into the best in sports journalism, and who are among our many successful St. Bonaventure graduates, to develop this program. The foundation of the Jandoli School has always been about balancing ethics and excellence in pursuit of the truth, and the contributions of our alumni will keep this program grounded in those principles.”
