DePauw University
Director of the Eugene S. Pulliam Center for Contemporary Media
Description
DePauw University is a top 50 nationally ranked private liberal arts university with a diverse student body of just over 1900 undergraduates from across the country and around the globe. Just over 19% of DePauw students are domestic students of color and 23% are international students. DePauw’s mission, “developing leaders the world needs through an uncommon commitment to the liberal arts,” is supported by our vision statement, relational and core values, and transcendent priorities. For more than 185 years, DePauw has created an atmosphere of intellectual challenge and campus engagement that prepares students for lifelong success. DePauw’s ongoing commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging seeks to create an environment where all students thrive. DePauw is conveniently located in Greencastle, Indiana, approximately a 45-minute drive from the Indianapolis International Airport and a three-hour drive from Chicago.
DePauw has produced an uncommon number of journalism leaders over the years and Indiana’s oldest college newspaper, The DePauw, has been named the state’s best college newspaper eight times by the Indiana Collegiate Press Association. WGRE Radio, which recently celebrated its 75th anniversary, has a long and distinguished history providing radio service to DePauw and west central Indiana. WGRE has been ranked by the Princeton Review in the top 10 campus radio stations and the station has been a finalist three times for the Crystal Award given by the National Association of Broadcasters. The Society of Professional Journalists, Sigma Delta Chi, the largest professional journalism organization, was founded by students on the DePauw campus in 1909.
Opened in 1991, the Center for Contemporary Media has been a one-of-a-kind resource for college students seeking to gain experience in mass media. In April of 2000, the facility was renamed the Eugene S. Pulliam Center for Contemporary Media (Pulliam Center) in honor of a generous gift from the Pulliam Family, a prominent Indiana newspaper family. The Pulliam Center houses facilities for students and faculty to explore various methods of mass communication from a hands-on perspective. Highlights within the building include The DePauw, WGRE, D3TV and a studio dedicated to podcasting. All students, regardless of their major, are welcomed to be involved in any of the media organizations housed at the Pulliam Center and may use the facilities for personal or class projects.
Summary of Position
DePauw University seeks a full-time Director of the Pulliam Center, to start by summer 2025. The Director will help the University deepen the connection between its liberal arts education and contemporary media by ensuring that the Pulliam Center offers media literacy learning and experiential opportunities across traditional/legacy and new media platforms. These opportunities give students experience with analog and digital formats, and with interactive and asynchronous formats. The enhanced vision for the Pulliam Center is expected to align with the University’s ambitious Bold and Gold 2027 strategic plan being implemented under the leadership of President Lori S. White. The plan builds on DePauw’s historic strengths developing students to be leaders using the hallmarks of a liberal arts education and also showcases and enhances some of our academic areas including launching a School of Business and Leadership in fall 2023 and a Creative School in fall 2024. These new schools complement the long-standing strengths of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences where the Pulliam Center is housed. The center, like all our centers and schools, is charged with providing opportunities to students, faculty and staff across the entire University.
The Director of the Pulliam Center will be responsible for helping DePauw develop our future vision for one of the nation’s finest experiential learning programs in media leadership and literacy within a liberal arts setting. They will build and cultivate programming, skills development, internships, student organizations, and alumni mentoring and networking for a broad diversity of students from multiple disciplines interested in complementing their studies with media, journalism, and marketing skills, insights and experiences.
The Society of Professional Journalists Code of Ethics states “public enlightenment is the forerunner of justice and the foundation of democracy.” In keeping with that theme, in parallel with the work described above, the Director of the Pulliam Center will lead a collaborative process to develop a proposal for an enhanced Pulliam Center that will broaden its focus to leverage media to support civic discourse and engagement in ways that strengthen democracy. The successful director will be well-positioned for this part of the role and excited by the prospect of helping DePauw chart this new path as well as implementing the path after the proposal is approved, including collaborating with DePauw’s Development and Alumni Engagement Division to secure the necessary resources.
In addition to helping DePauw develop and implement the future vision of the Pulliam Center, the Director, with support of the associate director, advisors to the media organizations, and the building engineer is responsible for the ongoing management of building operations.
