Cem anos da Columbia Graduate School of Journalism Está anunciada para 1 de Dezembro próximo a publicação de um livro que vai certamente fazer história: Pulitzer's School: Columbia University's School of Journalism, 1903-2003, da autoria de James R. Boylan (Ed.: Columbia University Press). Em capa dura, são 400 páginas para evocar e recordar um século de existência daquela que é considerada como uma das melhores escolas de jornalismo do mundo. O trabalho inclui já a súmula dos debates sobre o futuro da instituição, desencadeados pelo actual presidente da Universidade de Columbia, Lee Bollinger, conforme refere a apresentação: "Marking the centenary of the founding of Columbia University School of Journalism, this study sets the story of the school's origins and development against the backdrop of the long, unresolved argument about a basic question: Can (and should) journalism be taught? Originally known as "the Pulitzer School" in honour of its chief benefactor, the newspaper magnate Joseph Pulitzer, the Columbia School of Journalism has been for a century a significant presence in the world's most visible journalism community. Assailed by critics for being disengaged from the real world of working journalists and hailed by supporters as upholding journalism's gold standard, the school has had a turbulent, even contentious history. Granted access to the school's records, James Boylan takes the measure of the diverse views of the school and its roles, up to and including the debate initiated by Columbia's president in 2003, Lee Bollinger".
