Scripps Howard School of Journalism & Communications

Hampton University's Scripps Howard School of Journalism & Communications in Hampton, VA is dedicated to fostering diversity and inclusion in sports journalism through its participation in the Rhoden Fellows Initiative. Named after award-winning sports columnist William C. Bill Rhoden, the fellowship program provides training for outstanding undergraduate students from Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) to become the next generation of sports journalists.

Through a partnership with Andscape, formerly ESPN's The Undefeated, the Rhoden Fellows Initiative offers students like Zoey Hodge the opportunity to develop their skills in writing, podcast production, and creative storytelling within the sports journalism field. The program aims to amplify diverse voices and experiences within the HBCU community, supported by a team of professionals dedicated to expanding the horizons of aspiring journalists.
