KEMPA Fall Scholastic Journalism Conference: Power of the Press
KEMPA’s goal is to support advisers and student journalists. By offering programs like our summer journalism camp, winter adviser’s retreat and fall student conference during the year, we can help build your program.
At our Fall Scholastic Journalism Conference on Thursday, Oct. 16, 2025, at UW-Whitewater, we connect you and your students to professionals, advisers and other student journalists in our KEMPA community. We are looking forward to helping your staff build their skills, be inspired by winning contest entries, and celebrate last year’s accomplishments.
Our theme, Power of the Press emphasizes the need for media to protect the institution of journalism, continuing our mission to defend the public’s right to inquiry and free speech.
The opening session will begin at 9:30 a.m. with awards and announcements, followed by the keynote speaker, reporter Andie Bernhardt, from 10:00-10:30 a.m. Each of the two sessions will last 45 minutes, starting at 10:45 a.m. and 12:45 p.m. Advisers and presenters will then take part in the annual KEMPA meeting, including awards presentations, elections, and announcements, during lunch from 11:45 a.m. to 12:35 p.m.
This event is available to 9-12 grade students interested in media and their advisers/teachers.
