Loyola Chapter of SPJ
Loyola Chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists
Embedded in the history of Journalism is the Society of Professional Journalists. It is the nation's largest and most broad-based journalism organization, dedicated to encouraging the free practice of print and electronic journalism and stimulating high standards of ethical behavior. The SPJ code of ethics is still the gold-standard by which industry professionals abide today.
The Loyola Chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists has won the Best Chapter in the Region award three times.
