Good news for journalism since last I wrote. When “Zounds” went to press in April, we knew that KUNM’s News Department had gar- nered 17 awards in a competition judged out-of-state by the Associ- ated Press. What we learned later was KUNM was selected as “Station of the Year” in New Mexico. That is a great honor, especially since this is our sev- enth year running to be Best Station. KUNM is able to produce news because you care enough to invest in our work with a contribution. We earn the awards by hard work from many people. Without a doubt, this recog- nition is made possible by your help and participation. That is very cool, so, thank you! Then came word from UNM’s Communication and Journalism’s Chair John Oetzel, “I am happy to report that the journalism and mass communication programs in the department are now officially accredited. At the Accrediting Council meeting on May 2, the site team report was reviewed and the council unanimously supported our accreditation. Congratulations to all who worked so hard on this project and thanks to everyone who supported our efforts.” The May 2008 press release from UNM tells the story. “The Accrediting Council on Education in Journalism and Mass Communications has unanimously approved the accredi- tation of the journalism and mass communication programs in the Department of Communication & Journalism at the University of New Mexico.” “We are elated with the decision of the Accrediting Coun- cil,” stated John Oetzel, department chair. They found us in complete compliance with all of the standards validating the excellent work of the faculty and department. We are pleased to state that our journalism and mass communication programs are now accredited. We look forward to working with students, the university, community, and media organiza- tions to continue this excellence and further strengthen our program.” As part of the accreditation process, an ACEJMC site team visited the Department of Communication & Journal- ism Department earlier this year in January. The council found the department in compliance with each of the nine standards of the ACEJMC including: Mission, Governance and Administration, Curriculum and Instruction, Diversity and Inclusiveness, Full-Time and Part-Time Faculty, Scholar- ship: Research, Creative and Professional Activity, Student Services, Resources, Facilities and Equipment, Professional and Public Service and Assessment of Learning Outcomes. “I am delighted that our programs in journalism and mass communication are now accredited,” said Brenda Claiborne, dean, College of Arts and Sciences. “The Communication and Journalism faculty worked diligently over several years to achieve this distinction. They carefully evaluated the cur- riculum, used assessment findings to strengthen the programs, and worked with community and media organizations to en- hance opportunities for students. The faculty members are to be commended for their outstand- ing teaching, research and ser- vice.” My own belief is this: To sustain journalism, we must build spaces to welcome, birth, incubate, nurture, train and grad- uate journalists.

Jeremy Scahill iscoming to Albuquerque

Friday, June 27th!He will be discussing the paperback

version of his book, Blackwater.

STAY TUNED TO KUNM FOR VENUE DETAILS!

“MEET BLACKWATER USA, the powerful private army that the U.S. government has made its

Praetorian Guard for the “global war on terror.” Blackwater has the world’s largest private military

base, a fleet of twenty aircraft, and 20,000 contractors at the ready. Run by a multimillionaire

Christian conservative who bankrolls President Bush and his allies, its forces are capable of over-throwing governments, and yet most people have

never heard of Blackwater. That is about to change.”
