School of Journalism and Communication

With the possibility of a large Cascadia subduction zone earthquake or other natural disaster still on people's minds, the UO School of Journalism and Communication is working with Oregon Public Broadcasting to measure what kinds of messages about preparedness resonate with audiences.
A new Insights and Analytics Lab within the School of Journalism and Communications will open in January.
Hector Tobar, a professor in the UO’s School of Journalism and Communication, has been selected as one of three judges for the PEN Open Book Award, offered by the PEN American Center.
His most recent textbook on constructing human knowledge through graphic storytelling — titled “Unflattening” — is a comic book itself.
Young people continue to flock to the profession in spite of shrinking staffs and public distrust, says UO professor Héctor Tobar.
