About the Institute

The High School Journalism Institute is a unique opportunity for students to get hands-on experience in journalism. Over nearly three decades, it has helped inspire hundreds of aspiring young journalists.

With guidance from professional mentors, participants use real journalism skills to report and photograph a 36-page newspaper, as well as blog and produce multimedia pieces.

The institute is a collaboration between Oregon State University, Oregonian Media Group and other Oregon media organizations. It is free to attend thanks to generous philanthropic and community support.
