Cronkite Village![]() Cronkite Villagers get their photo taken with Robert MacNeil and Jim Lehrer, the longtime PBS newscasters who received the 2008 Cronkite Award. ![]() Cronkite Villagers take in a Diamondbacks game at Chase Field in downtown Phoenix. Cronkite Village is a residential college designed especially for Cronkite School freshmen. About 60 Cronkite Village students live and learn together in Taylor Place, the residence hall next door to the Cronkite School on the Downtown Phoenix Campus. Through tours and other activities, the Cronkite Village program gives students a unique opportunity to interact with professionals from newspapers, radio and television stations, public relations agencies and online organizations in the nation’s 12th largest media market. Students also gain hands-on experiences working on a Web site or TV or radio show and have the opportunity to get to know their professors over lunches and dinners and through special lectures, workshops and other activities. Villagers are frequently called on to help with Cronkite events and in past years have met with Walter Cronkite during his visits to the school. The Village also offers a range of fun activities, including a Halloween costume contest, a holiday party, barbeques, craft evenings and Sunday night parties. Villagers find that living with like-minded, motivated students on a single floor of Taylor Place helps them make friends, get involved and adjust quickly to college life. Want to be a part of it?
Cronkite Village is led by Rebecca Kleinberg, who can be reached beccapk@asu.edu. |
