My feature on climate change affecting NY’s Black cemeteries was published in City Limits today! I’m really proud of how it turned out, it went through 3 of the best editors a young reporter could ask for Emily Laber-Warren Wesley Jeanmarie Evelly

Marnie!!!!! I love this story and it was amazing to watch you bring it to fruition—sooooooo beautiful. Congratulations on publication. yessenia funes

Always feels great to assign a reading to my Newmark J-School health/sci students that was written by one of our alums! Today, this great chapter by Erin Brodwin in KSJ at MIT Knight Science Journalism handbook. ksjhandbook.org/covering-healt…

Another great story from Newmark J-School climate reporting class published--by Liz Rosenberg This Liz Rosenberg Has Not Yet Worked For Madonna, in DeSmog yessenia funes desmog.com/2024/02/28/nyc…

Great nuanced work by ⁦Newmark J-School⁩ recent health/sci grad ⁦Rebecca Redelmeier on school violence⁩—her capstone co-published in ⁦The Hechinger Report⁩ and ⁦The Guardian⁩ theguardian.com/education/2024…

Congrats to ⁦Roxanne L. Scott⁩ ⁦Newmark J-School⁩ alum Roxanne Scott for explaining how to write explainers in ⁦The Open Notebook⁩ —and quoting another of our health/sci grads ⁦Helina Selemon (she/her)⁩ Selemon to boot! theopennotebook.com/2024/02/13/wri…

Another excellent story from Newmark J-School climate change class taught with yessenia funes: Elias Guerra wrote about a misguided US Army Corps plan for Jamaica Bay for City & State NY (with great photos) cityandstateny.com/policy/2024/02…

Thanks for shepherding this piece, Holly, such important reporting from Elias Guerra of Newmark J-School!

Wow. Blame the mom —not the gun lobby, the incitement of violence coming from our leaders, even school officials trajned to recognize troubled kids. It’s her fault? What a way for our society to dodge responsibility nytimes.com/2024/02/06/us/…

Sharon Begley was truly one of the best health journalists around. Just found this important story she did for STAT, as relevant today as five years ago, with more failed #AlzheimersDisease meds hitting the market recently statnews.com/2019/06/25/alz…

Grateful to craig newmark for this additional gift to CUNY's journalism school to help students from non-wealthy backgrounds enter this profession and bring their energies, commitments and much needed perspectives!

Why am I not surprised? theguardian.com/world/2024/jan…
