I attended the Equity in the Media Fellowship event held on campus earlier this semester, and it was an amazing opportunity to hear from media professionals who are continuously shaping the media industry while encouraging the next generation. This program brought together faculty, University of New Haven students and media professionals for a conversation about equity, opportunities, and diverse voices in the media. Plus, more than 200 local highschoolers from West Haven High School, Betsy Ross Arts Magnet, and Metropolitan Business Academy were also in attendance, giving them the opportunity to connect with professionals, and University of New Haven students and faculty to learn about the different aspects of the field.
To start the event, Professor Wayne Edwards, the host, welcomed everyone to the 3rd annual Equity in the Media Fellowship Event, and he recognized several individuals who attended, including Department of Communication, Film, and Media Studies chair Tom Garrett, M.F.A., and University of New Haven’s president Jens Frederiksen, Ph.D.
