Under CHRISTIANITY TODAY’S religious news fellowship with the Washington Journalism Center, two men will be staff interns during the semester beginning February 1: William Freeland of Willow Grove, Pennsylvania, who holds the M.S. from Columbia University’s Graduate School of Journalism, and James L. Adams, a reporter on the Cincinnati Post and Times-Star, who holds the B.A. from Ohio State University. Mr. Freeland will be assigned to our daily news operation, and Mr. Adams will specialize in investigative projects. In addition, T. E. Koshy of Bombay, India, who also is interested in religious journalism, will consult our staff during his research work. Mr. Koshy, who holds B.A. and LL.B. degrees from Bombay University, is an M.A. candidate in religious journalism at Syracuse University.
Edward H. Pitts, first holder of the CHRISTIANITY TODAY fellowship, completes his assignments this month and then assumes the editorship of two journals in the Advent Christian Church. We have also appreciated our liaison this past semester with another Center scholar, O. Wilson Okite, who plans to be a journalist in his homeland of Kenya.
