🫐 About the Snedden Speaker Series:
The Snedden Speaker Series is made possible through the generosity of Helen Snedden, who endowed a chair of journalism at the University of Alaska Fairbanks in honor of her late husband, Charles Willis "Bill" Snedden. Bill, a visionary journalist and former owner of the Fairbanks Daily News-Miner, built his life around telling great stories and nurturing a vibrant press in the Interior. Helen established the Snedden Endowed Chair of Journalism to continue Bill’s legacy of educating and mentoring young journalists. The series has featured some of the nation’s most distinguished reporters, including 11 Pulitzer Prize winners, providing an invaluable opportunity for UAF students to learn from the best in the field.
