In the following video, Steve Coll, the Dean and Henry R. Luce Professor of Journalism at Columbia Journalism School, talks about why this is an invigorating and important time to pursue a journalism education. "I think the best reason to come to journalism school is because the life of a journalist is really the most joyous and the most interesting and exciting that I can imagine," Dean Coll explains. "You get to travel, you get to ask impertinent questions of powerful people, you get to stand in the middle of the public square in the midst of tumult and document our history as it unfolds in front of us."   At Columbia, a top-tier journalism education can be within financial reach.
