Murrow students are telling global stories that matter.

Through the Murrow College's Backpack Journalism program, students traveled to Vietnam to report on the growing demand for Washington apples, capturing not just the economics, but the cultural connections behind the story.

We’re proud to see their work published in The Spokesman-Review, highlighting both their reporting and photography skills.

Congratulations to our talented student journalists and photographers for bringing these stories to life.

This is what corporate social responsibility looks like! Thank you to @BoeingWA and @Microsoft for your initial investment in @OppScholarship and to all of the companies that followed their leadership. These scholarships have literally opened college doors to thousands of Cougs.

Fifteen years ago, the Washington State Opportunity Scholarship was created to help remove barriers to higher education for students across our state. Built through a strong public-private partnership, including @Microsoft and @Boeing’s early leadership, WSOS combines scholarships, mentorship, and career pathways to become an engine for economic mobility for more than 12,500 Washington students. @OppScholarship
