OPEN CAMPUS LOCAL REPORTING NETWORK: WE COMBINE SUPPORT FROM NATIONAL, REGIONAL, AND LOCAL FUNDERS TO CREATE LONG-TERM PARTNERSHIPS THAT ADVANCE SOPHISTICATED COVERAGE OF THE HIGHER ED BEAT. THROUGH THE OPEN CAMPUS LOCAL REPORTER NETWORK, WE COLLABORATE EVERY WEEK WITH REPORTERS IN PARTNER NEWSROOMS, COACHING THEM ON COVERAGE, PROVIDING STORY GUIDANCE, DOING BIG-PICTURE EDITING, AND CONNECTING THEM WITH NATIONAL DATA, SOURCES, AND CONTEXT. THEY BENEFIT FROM CONNECTIONS WITH ONE ANOTHER AND FROM MONTHLY OPEN CAMPUS REPORTING WORKSHOPS. THEY ARE EMPLOYED BY THEIR LOCAL NEWSROOMS, AND STORIES ARE PUBLISHED BY THE LOCAL NEWSROOM AND OPEN CAMPUS. OPEN CAMPUS STAFF EDITORS WORK WITH THE PARTNER NEWSROOMS TO PRODUCE HIGH-QUALITY WORK. THEY ALSO SEND OUT NEWSLETTERS ABOUT THE WORK TO OPEN CAMPUS SUBSCRIBERS.

JOURNALIST TRAINING: THE HBCU STUDENT JOURNALISM FELLOWSHIPOPEN CAMPUS ACKNOWLEDGES THE UNDERREPRESENTATION OF HISTORICALLY BLACK COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES (HBCUS) IN MAINSTREAM REPORTING AND THE NEED TO AMPLIFY BLACK VOICES IN JOURNALISM. TO ADDRESS THIS, OPEN CAMPUS, IN PARTNERSHIP WITH HBCU DIGEST, HAS DEVELOPED THE HBCU STUDENT JOURNALISM FELLOWSHIP. THIS INITIATIVE PROVIDES HBCU STUDENTS WITH THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONTRIBUTE TO ACCURATE AND COMPREHENSIVE REPORTING ON HBCUS WHILE FOSTERING A DIVERSE PIPELINE OF JOURNALISM TALENT.

OPEN CAMPUS NATIONAL REPORTING TEAM: OPEN CAMPUS COVERS ALL FACETS OF HIGHER EDUCATION. TO THAT END, WE HAVE A NATIONAL REPORTER ON STAFF WHO WRITES ABOUT POSTSECONDARY EDUCATION INSIDE PRISONS AND HOW IT IS BEING TRANSFORMED BY NEW FUNDING AND NEW TECHNOLOGY. OUR SECOND NATIONAL REPORTER IS FOCUSED ON HOW HIGHER EDUCATION IS SERVING RURAL COMMUNITIES AND RURAL RESIDENTS. IN 2022, WE HAD A NATIONAL REPORTER FOCUSED ON COVERING ISSUES OF RACE AND EQUITY IN HIGHER ED. ALL REPORTERS PRODUCED EMAIL NEWSLETTERS ABOUT THEIR BEATS. OPEN CAMPUS STAFF EDITORS WORK WITH THE NATIONAL REPORTERS TO PRODUCE HIGH-QUALITY WORK, AND TO CO-PUBLISH THAT WORK WITH NATIONAL NEWS OUTLETS.
