The ABC’s of Covering the Juvenile Justice System is the next event we're co-sponsoring. It's an opportunity for professional and student journalists to:
• Gather resources, tips and ideas to create compelling and comprehensive stories about youth involved in the juvenile justice system. • Hear from those working in the juvenile justice field about trends in Ohio and across the country that can be turned into news stories. • Network with other journalists and potential sources. Discuss challenges and opportunities in covering juvenile justice stories.

Media fragmentation. Audience Erosion. Declining readership and viewers.
The shrinking bottom line. Belt-tightening. More with less.
Cutbacks. Furloughs. Layoffs.
We’re all aware of the turbulent state of the industry these days. And it's hard to find time to break away and try to talk about journalism with a capital "J" - but it has never mattered more.
SPJ is about journalists getting together - off deadline and away from the daily grind - to talk shop, network, trade best practices and mentor the next generation of professionals. Because that's how we all get better at what we do.
Alex Coolidge - President, Cincinnati SPJ

Cincinnati SPJ has partnered with the University of Cincinnati Foundation to establish a scholarship in former Cincinnati Enquirer reporter Jim Knippenberg’s name.
On April 18, 2012, the Jim Knippenberg Scholarship Committee will hold a fundraiser featuring the great former TV5 news team of Jerry Springer, Norma Rashid and Pat Barry. They'll reunite for one evening at the Celestial in Mt Adams. Former TV5 legend Rob Reider and the very talented Austin Speigel will provide entertainment. This one-of-a-kind event will be as unique and memorable as "Knip" was. For registration and other information, please visit the Knippenberg scholarship website.
Jim died in 2009 at the age of 63, a year after retiring from his 37 years at the Enquirer. Jim not only graduated from UC, but also taught there for more than 15 years. This is a very worthy tribute to his memory.
The UC Foundation, SPJ and friends of Knip are raising a $50,000 for an endowment that will create a $2,500-a-year scholarship for UC juniors and seniors studying journalism. In less than a year, we have raised more than $26,000.
To give, log on to: webapps.uc.edu/foundation/gift/gift.aspx - enter McMicken College (the liberal arts college) from the drop down list and put the Knippenberg Scholarship” in the notes box. This takes about 1 minute. You can also call Chris Eden at the UC Foundation at (513) 556-0912.
