Cronkite Camp

Camp Cronkite is where high schoolers from across the country come to grow their media skills—and get a taste of college! Students leave with real media skills and work to bolster (or kickstart!) their professional portfolios. Students choose their own Camp Cronkite adventure by selecting one of the three available tracks: digital journalism (focuses on writing, photography, graphics and multimedia journalism); broadcast journalism (focuses on video, TV, audio and immersive journalism); sports media (focuses on sports journalism and team storytelling). At Camp Cronkite, students learn approaches to reporting, pitching, storytelling and editing, and get hands-on experience across a variety of media techniques—video editing, photography, reporting and writing, script development, AR/VR media and more. During their stay, campers will reside in our residential hall, Taylor Place, which is located across the street from the Cronkite School.
