S. I. Newhouse School Of Public Communications
The S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications is the communications school at Syracuse University. It has programs in print and broadcast journalism; advertising; public relations; and television and film.
The school was named for publishing magnate Samuel Irving Newhouse Sr., who provided the founding gift in 1964. The Newhouse family, now led by sons S.I. Newhouse Jr. and Donald, chairman and president, respectively, continues to support the school, most recently (in 2003) with a $15 million gift for the construction of Newhouse 3, the third building in the Newhouse School's three-building complex.
Lorraine Branham has served as dean of the school since 2008. The school includes about 70 full-time faculty members and about 50 adjunct instructors. Enrollment includes some 1,800 undergraduate students; 225 graduate students; and 15 doctoral degree candidates. Admissions are highly selective.
In December 2011, NewsPro ranked Newhouse as the top journalism school in the country.
In 2012, the school began fundraising for a proposed $18 million renovation of its studios, located in the Newhouse 2 building, which will include a comprehensive HD upgrade.
