The Fall Conferences are a rich KSPA tradition, inspiring student journalists around the state for the beginning of their year on their publication staff or at the start of their journalism classes. The incredible school publications from east to west and from north to south gather at three universities to learn from professionals, university instructors and talented high school teachers. And they walk away with the enthusiasm to accomplish great things as reporters, photographers, designers, videographers and leaders. 

The one-day conferences offer your staff these opportunities:

• A welcome by the KSPA board of directors
• Three or four blocks of breakout sessions hosted by professors, professionals and expert advisers on dozens of topics: photography, yearbook, newspaper, online, broadcast, design and more
• Chances to tour state-of-the-art college media facilities
• A day of bonding with your fellow staff members and adviser
