Zane Meyer-Thornton, a junior photojournalism student, came from California to Kentucky hoping to make a jump in his skills. His father, a now cancer survivor, encouraged him to advance beyond his photography job at the time.
“After he got better, I knew that I wanted to get my degree for him and also for myself. But, I thought to myself, if I am going to do this, I am going to go to the best place that I can, and Western was that school for me,” Meyer-Thornton said.
Meyer-Thornton received a $10,000 scholarship from the Facebook Journalism Project and the Native American Journalists Association (NAJA) for the 2020-21 academic year - a notable award he attributes to his experience at WKU.
