A key feature of the WSJ On Campus brand is the integration of professional journalism from WSJ[3] with crowd-sourced student content from Unigo[4] to create original stories on college admissions and college life.[5] Paul Bascobert, chief marketing officer at Dow Jones & Company, announced the creation of WSJ On Campus alongside Jordan Goldman, Unigo's founder and CEO.[6] Stories from WSJ On Campus have won multiple awards from The Association of Educational Publishers, including Best Education Portal, Best Social Media and Best Education Website.[7] [8] [9]
In addition to original reporting, WSJ On Campus also produces live webcasts examining key issues around college admissions and college life.[10] Webcasts are hosted by Jordan Goldman and broadcast on the homepage of WSJ.com.[11] To date, WSJ On Campus webcasts have featured Goldman interviewing Deans of Admissions from Princeton University,[12] the University of Pennsylvania,[13] Columbia University,[14] the Massachusetts Institute of Technology,[15] Brown University,[16] Williams College,[17] Wesleyan University,[18] Bryn Mawr College,[19] Grinnell College,[20] New York University, Penn State and the University of Vermont.[21]
