Name: Amy Slanchik, Ethics and Excellence in Journalism Foundation Fellow

School: University of Oklahoma

Style of reporting: Broadcast and multimedia

Previous internship or work experience: I have interned for The Washington Times, the Scripps Howard Foundation Wire and CBS News in Washington, D.C. While earning my degree in journalism I interned for KWTV News 9 in Oklahoma City, and reported for OU Nightly and Routes TV, productions of the Gaylord College of Journalism and Mass Communication.

Favorite reporting experience: My favorite reporting experience was covering the Supreme Court case Tarrant Regional Water District v. Herrmann, which determined water rights of a portion of the Red River for Oklahoma and Texas. I sat in the courtroom for the oral arguments, and was at the court the day the decision came out.
