Discover How Pepperdine University Became a Regional Hub for Solutions Journalism

On Tuesday, December 10, 2024, the Solutions Journalism Network (SJN) announced that Pepperdine University was named a regional hub for solutions journalism—a distinction that recognizes institutions of higher learning with journalism programs that integrate solution-focused journalism into their teaching, research, and service. 

“We are thrilled that Pepperdine will be joining our university hubs,” said Francine Huff, director of training and curriculum for SJN. “Faculty there have already shown a commitment to teaching solutions reporting techniques to students, as well as working with other partners in the community to help them understand the importance of this rigorous, fact-based reporting.”
