COLUMBIA – The $15 million in additional funding secured by the Reynolds Journalism Institute was the fruit of nearly two years of discussions with the Donald W. Reynolds Foundation, said Roger Gafke, RJI director of program development.
The institute makes regular progress reports to the foundation, Gafke said, but formal discussions about an extension of funding began in late 2007.
An evaluation of RJI activities in the first five years of its existence culminated in a presentation to the foundation in May 2009 by Dean Mills, dean of the Journalism School, and Pam Johnson, RJI executive director.
