Fall 2022 Outstanding Graduate Laura Bargfeld

Описание: The Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication Outstanding Graduate Student for Fall 2022 is Laura Bargfeld, earning a Master of Mass Communication.

“I was always the coworker friend who was mad about the ‘goings on’ of the world,” said Bargfeld, who uses they/them/their pronouns. “Then I think I had a realization that if I was going to be irritated all the time by society, I should probably do something about that and the skills I have are mostly in storytelling. So that kind of led to journalism pretty naturally.”

The Cronkite School offered Bargfeld travel experiences, fellowships and funding, through the Cronkite Borderlands Initiative and a Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Southwest Health Reporting Fellowship. They also participated in the Carnegie-Knight News21 national reporting initiative, which brings top journalism students from across the country to report and produce in-depth, multimedia projects for major media outlets, and worked with Cronkite News as a health reporter.
