📌School of Communication

📌Lee Caplin School of Journalism & Media

FIU and its Department of Journalism + Media, within the College of Communication, Architecture + The Arts (CARTA), recently announced a $10 million naming gift from philanthropists Mr. and Mrs. Lee Caplin establishing the Lee Caplin School of Journalism & Media— one of the largest donations to a journalism and media program in the State University System of Florida.
 
“In support of the dynamic leadership and vision of President Kenneth Jessell, I am delighted to invest in the evolution of this extraordinary university’s programs and the vibrant communities it serves so well,” Lee Caplin said. “FIU reflects the diversity and promise of our times. This gift will enable the university to continue its unique trajectory and further enhance its graduates’ success.”

“Mr. Caplin’s gift is a transformational investment in our journalism and media programs,” said CARTA Dean Brian Schriner. “We are grateful for his investments in the college, which mirror his inspired and influential professional accomplishments. We look forward to the Caplin School and our South Florida Media Network, which is at the core of our commitment to experiential learning, becoming synonymous with cutting-edge journalism and media excellence.”
 
With the creation of the Lee Caplin School of Journalism & Media (formerly the Department of Journalism + Media) and the reorganization of our newly named School of Communication (formerly the School of Communication + Journalism), the social media handles have moved to FIUCaplinSchool and FIUCommSchool, respectively.
