UPDATE (2021) — In honor of adviser Esther Wojcicki, who retired in June 2020, the Paly Media Arts Boosters is pleased to announce a significant expansion of the Paly Journalism Archives thanks to a grant from the Anne Wojcicki Foundation and the Troper Wojcicki Foundation. The grant has enabled the PJA to digitize and make available student work from across the Paly journalism program from the years 2000 to 2020.
