International Reporting
Journalism Graduate student Rebecca Sananes has been selected to be a Pulitzer Center Fellow. Rebecca will travel to Cuba in the next few months to report on HIV-AIDS. In addition, Rebecca will go to South Africa next summer for the International AIDS conference.
The Pulitzer Fellowships are a centerpiece of BU’s Program on Crisis Response and Reporting, which examines the intersection of journalism and public health at times of crisis.
The Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting—collaboration between BU’s School of
