Media Scholars Mentoring Program

Provides undergraduates with valuable learning, career and scholarship
opportunities. The program begins with the Media Plan Case Competition
(http://mediascholars.org/case-competition), requiring students to create a
strategic media plan for a hypothetical public policy issue in a special
election. Finalists earn an all-expense paid trip to Washington, DC for
Media Scholars Week
<http://mediascholars.org/media-scholars-program/media-scholars-week> where
they meet with media industry leaders and present their strategic plans to a
panel of judges. The winning team will be announced at a Networking
Reception
(http://mediascholars.org/media-scholars-program/networking-reception) held
at the Newseum.
