UM’s Meek School of Journalism is at the forefront of new media and with the recent Integrated Marketing Communications, IMC, major, it is educating journalists on multimedia platforms, but some don’t feel that the department is what it used to be.
“The department has gone down since I was a freshman here,” said Katharine Dale a senior IMC major at UM.
Adjunct Professor Ken Boutwell's opinion differs.  Boutwell has worked for UM for 16 years, from director of media to teaching Boutwell has seen the department grow over time.
The Meek School of Journalism has produced several notable achievements over the past few years such as Margaret Anne Miller and Stephen Quin, two students awarded honors for their work.
The Meek School of Journalism & New Media is evolving with the times.
