The National Sportscasters and Sportswriters Association, a 600-member organization that includes America's top broadcasters and writers, is partnering with the Indiana University National Sports Journalism Center based on the IUPUI campus to develop educational opportunities in sports journalism.

The 51-year-old sportscasters and sportswriters association, which is headquartered in Salisbury, N.C., is one of the nation's oldest and largest sports media organizations. The NSJC, formed nearly two years ago, is headed by former newspaper editor and current School of Journalism Louis A. Weil Endowed Chair Tim Franklin. Its mission is to provide top quality and cutting-edge instruction on sports media for everyone from high school students to veteran professionals.

The NSJC also partnered with the Associated Press Sports Editors, which has its headquarters at the center.
