The school shares facilities with the Pulitzer Prizes. It directly administers several other prizes, including the Alfred I. duPont–Columbia University Award, honoring excellence in broadcast and digital journalism in the public service. It co-sponsors the National Magazine Awards, also known as the Ellie Awards, and publishes the Columbia Journalism Review.
In addition to offering professional development programs, fellowships and workshops, the school is home to the Tow Center for Digital Journalism,[2] the Brown Institute for Media Innovation,[3] and the Dart Center for Journalism and Trauma.[4]
Admission to the school is highly selective and has traditionally drawn a very international student body. A Board of Visitors meets periodically to advise the dean's office and support the school's initiatives.[5]
