The Columbia Journalism School will pause admissions for its Master of Arts program to conduct a “critical evaluation” of the curriculum, dean Jelani Cobb announced www.niemanlab.org/2026/10/colu...
A Note on Our M.A. Program Evolution

Columbia Journalism School regularly reviews its degree offerings to ensure our teaching keeps pace with the evolving demands of global reporting. To focus fully on this strategic evaluation, we are temporarily pausing admissions for the M.A. program. 

Prospective applicants interested in the M.A. program are encouraged to contact the Admissions Office at apply.journalism@columbia.edu to discuss how our other degree programs may align with your academic and career goals or whether you prefer to wait for the relaunch of the M.A.

One of the Cornell students accused of gang rape, Scott Kretzschmar, denies it and says through his attorney that they are going to “confront” the survivor through the court system. I can already tell you that means victim-blaming, DARVO, and smears. She is going to need a lot more of our support.
