Society of Professional Journalists at Indiana University

The Society of Professional Journalists is an international organization committed to promoting ethical journalism and fighting for journalists. The IU chapter works to educate the community about journalism and free speech, create special networking and professional development opportunities for its members and encourage ethical journalism on campus through programs open to journalism students and the general public. SPJ has a long history at IU, but our current chapter was reborn in 2007 after years of inactivity. It has won the chapter of the year award and SPJ-IU members frequently rank among the top in the organization's annual Mark of Excellence awards.
