Three CoJMC students took on New York City and London, England, this past summer thanks to three alumni who created advertising and public relations scholarships. The scholarships were created to assist students who pursue unfunded or underfunded internships, pursue international travel experiences or pursue internships in cities with a high cost of living.
Grant Ebel of Scribner was awarded a J. Steve Davis Scholarship, which is reserved for students with an internship in a “Top 25” market. The Davis Scholarship provided Ebel with financial support for living expenses while he completed a news and production internship with MTV Networks in New York City.
Jane Ngo of South Sioux City was awarded the Kris Malkoski Scholarship, which provided her financial support to make an international internship more affordable. Ngo participated in the Arcadia program in London, England, and was placed with Aqueduct.
Ben Preston of Omaha, was awarded the Deb Fiddelke Fund, which allowed him to pursue an unpaid out-of-state internship with Publicis Healthcare Communications Group in New York City.
