Institute Update | ||
The Schuster Institute for Investigative Journalism closed on December 31, 2018, after 14 years of supporting pioneering investigatory journalism. It was a generous gift from Elaine and Gerald Schuster in 2004 that established the Schuster Institute and sustained it for many years. The Schuster Institute was the first investigative reporting center established at a university and it provided many independent journalists a platform and home base from which to launch impactful investigative projects. This site includes archived materials from its talented and dedicated fellows. |
