| What Journalists are Saying |

I'm grateful for the opportunity you gave me to get a better grounding in financial issues surrounding preparation for retirement. You brought in powerful speakers with a wealth of knowledge. And I was very impressed by the fellows you chose. The discussions among ourselves was an extremely valuable added benefit. (Retirement Issues in the 21st Century, Washington, DC, May 2006)

Nineteen college fellows were introduced to Washington journalism in February during NPF's 2008 "Introduction to Washington for College Journalists" program. The group met with veteran Washington editors and journalists, got inside the House and Senate press galleries, watched the Supreme Court in action, had a briefing from the Communications Director for a U.S. Representative, and more. They left with a much better working knowledge of Washington and of how to manage a journalism career in an evolving news industry. The NPF Helpdesk - Updates Every Monday
