INDIANAPOLIS—When Facebook first began its meteoric rise, some of my students said they wanted to do a story on it for the student newspaper.

We are The Statehouse File

From an office in the Press Corps of the Indiana Statehouse, the journalism majors of Franklin College's Pulliam School of Journalism work alongside the pros, digging into the behind-the-scenes stories of Indiana politics. We're a student newsroom, but our work doesn't sit on a professor's desk. We create daily content for this website and professional media outlets around the state, one of just 20 student statehouse reporting programs in the nation.

USE OUR CONTENT FOR FREE: Thanks to a $180,000 grant from Lumina, TheStatehouseFile.com has taken down its reader paywall and is offering its year-round coverage of the Indiana politics and culture to professional media outlets to republish for free. Just retain the author's byline and our Statehouse File tag. Questions? Email Executive Colleen Steffen at csteffen@franklincollege.edu.
