          Since it’s return to campus in 2015, Washington and Lee’s chapter of Society of Professional Journalists has worked hard to increase its membership among students.

          The Society of Professional Journalists (SPJ) is the nation’s largest journalism organization.

          It is dedicated to encouraging the free practice of journalism and ethical behavior.

          Each year, SPJ hosts a networking event and a speaker event on campus. On March 26, SPJ hosted Alisha Laventure, ‘09, who studied journalism and romance languages at W&L and now works at the ABC news affiliate in Dallas, WFAA.

          Laventure was in the national spotlight earlier this year for her controversial on-air response to demeaningcomments President Trump made about African nations and countries within the African diaspora, including Haiti, her parents’ home country.

          She spoke to students about the ethical journalist’s role in the modern media age.
