For more than 75 years the award-winning School of Mass Communication at Loyola University New Orleans has educated students in the Jesuit tradition. Our students have applied the knowledge and skills they gained at Loyola to make their mark in the industry – by becoming Editors for newspapers like the Minneapolis Star Tribune, helping to found world renowned news organizations like CNN, serving as vice-president of Warner Brothers and owners of advertising and public relations firms across the country. Our students not only flourish, but become leaders in their field.
We have a vision to take us to the next level with a multimedia center and broadcast studio to conduct sophisticated newsgathering and strategic communications. The new multimedia center will become a laboratory for the media’s future. It can serve as an emergency operations center, a training center and a social media research facility.
