Dale Armbruster, a senior with a double major in political science and communications, has been selected as this year’s NBC/John Carroll University “Meet the Press” Fellow. He will graduate in May and begin his fellowship later this year.
Armbruster, of Parma, Ohio, served as sports director for the campus radio station, WJCU, and was also assistant sports editor for The Carroll News. He has also been a member of the Society of Professional Journalists worked as a congressional intern in Ohio.
The NBC/John Carroll University “Meet the Press” Fellowship was created in honor of the Sunday morning program’s legendary host, Tim Russert, a 1972 graduate of John Carroll. It is awarded to a John Carroll University graduating senior motivated to pursue a career in political journalism. The Fellowship is a nine-month position at NBC’s “Meet the Press.” The fellowship affords a John Carroll University graduate the opportunity to gain experience in the research and production of the weekly political talk show under the direction of the program’s executive producer. The fellow will be exposed to the roles of editor, reporter, producer, and correspondent.
