About Student Voices
Student Voices is a partnership between Butler students and middle and high school students in the Indianapolis area to work on journalism and creative media projects. After the coaching and collaboration of the students with mentors, the projects that are created will be showcased on the Student Voices website as well as, potentially, on the national platform provided by the PBS NewsHour Student Reporting Lab program.
The initiative is a collaboration of the Eugene S. Pulliam School of Journalism & Creative Media at Butler University.
