The Reynolds School of Journalism celebrates 100 years of journalism education at Nevada

11 people sit for a portrait as the first journalism class.

The first journalism class at the University was taught in the fall semester of 1922 within the Department of English. 100 years of change and history later, the Reynolds School of Journalism continues to educate the next generation of journalists, establishing the RSJ Centennial Scholarship Endowment in 2022. Consider donating to the RSJ Centennial Scholarship to impact the lives of journalism students for the next 100 years and beyond.
