520 1 _a"It might seem unlikely that a midwestern university located far from national media centers would be home to the world's first journalism school, but the University of Missouri holds that distinction. Now celebrating its centennial, the School of Journalism, founded by a newsman who lacked a college education, is regarded as one of the highest-rated in the world." "Steve Weinberg, an alumnus and investigative reporter who returned to teach at Missouri, now covers - and uncovers - the many-faceted history of its School of Journalism, from the days of Walter Williams through the Dean Mills era. A Journalism of Humanity balances the dynamics of the university that set the school's course with the external forces that shaped journalism and society True to journalism, it reveals the school's flaws as well as its virtues." "Weinberg's account embraces faculty and staff members, students and alumni, supporters and detractors, as it covers all professional sequences taught at the school. It captures the freewheeling debate that has been a hallmark of the school and includes the perspectives of women, blacks, and gays, who all too often were marginalized. It also incorporates a wealth of insider detail, from a typical day at the school during the Williams era to tales of the "Missouri Mafia.""--BOOK JACKET.
