The Journalism Institute for Media Diversity was founded in 1984 at Wayne State University by the Department of Communication and editors of The Detroit News and the Detroit Free Press. Both newspapers are key supporters as are other metro Detroit newspapers, media outlets and radio and television stations.

Some graduates have moved on to careers in law, politics, civic and charitable organizations and as award winning authors and documentary producers.

In a diverse democracy, it is important that all voices are heard, no matter their creed, color, race, ethnicity or gender orientation. Graduates help to diversify the media and serve as an alumni network for those beginning professional careers.
