ABSTRACT
Journalism education has suffered many criticisms in the century since it fi rst became a formal university course of study. Its progress as a discipline has varied widely by country and institution. Its core focus is undergoing dramatic change, and the future is uncertain. Yet it is precisely at this moment, and perhaps because of these factors, that journalism education has reached a critical point in its maturity. Rather than predicting their own obsolescence, the response of journalism educators to these challenges is invigorating and refl ective. The capacity for recalibration and reinvention of journalism education for the next century is felt in classrooms, conferences, on Twitter feeds, and in scholarly journals.
