2013 Christopher J. Georges Conference on College Journalism

This year's Christopher J. Georges Conference on College Journalism was held at the Nieman Foundation for Journalism at Harvard on April 12-13, 2013. During the two-day event, more than 70 students from 16 college newspapers took advantage of workshops and networking opportunities and participated in discussions led by award-winning journalists and news executives.

The Nieman Foundation is deeply grateful to the family of journalist Christopher J. Georges for their continued support of this annual conference, which provides aspiring young journalists with new ideas, skills and resources. The foundation is also thankful for the generous support of the speakers and volunteers from The Harvard Crimson, under the direction of Crimson President Bobby Samuels, who have helped make the gathering possible.
