The Tow Center’s primary mission will be to educate the next generation of journalists with the skills and knowledge to lead the future of professional journalism on the Internet and other forms of Digital Journalism. The Tow Center will focus on the interactions between journalists and readers, as citizens provide more reporting and commentary and readers seek ways to better understand the reliability, standards and credibility in Digital Journalism. The Tow Center also will explore and innovate with new methods of digital reporting and presentation, providing ways to create journalism and inspire dialogue that will serve established media companies, as well as newly created outlets.
