RIVER FALLS – A University of Wisconsin-River Falls student who is studying journalism and criminology has been named the latest recipient of the Donovan E. Rasmussen Broadcast Journalism Fellowship.
Through the fellowship, Lexi Janzer, a junior from Mayville, will spend six weeks this summer reporting on crime victim services in western Wisconsin. Her work will be featured in a broadcast documentary.
Janzer is assistant editor of the UWRF campus newspaper, the Student Voice, and is a member of the Student Media Committee.
The fellowship is named in honor of Donovan E. Rasmussen (1922-09), who funded an endowment in 2006 with the UW-River Falls Foundation to be used by the journalism program.
The first Rasmussen fellow was Brooke Shepherd, who reported and produced a broadcast documentary about obesity in 2021. Last year’s fellow, Michelle Stangler, worked on a story about dairy farming in western Wisconsin.
