As part of UIS' "Exploring Graduate School" week, Public Affairs Reporting director Jason Piscia this week hosted a presentation highlighting the financial, educational and professional advantages of our 10-month master's degree program that focuses on journalism about politics and government.

Piscia also interviews Ben Szalinski, a 2021 PAR graduate who is now a legislative reporter with The Daily Line, a political newsletter based in Chicago.
