SIU has received a $2.25 million estate gift from alumnus Roy D. Franke, who passed away in 2024 and chose to leave a lasting investment in journalism and advertising education. His generosity will strengthen the Charlotte Thompson Suhler School of Journalism and Advertising and sustain the hands-on, real-world learning experiences that prepare students for professional careers in media, advertising and storytelling.

The gift will support the school’s professional labs, including The Daily Egyptian, Saluki AdLab, River Region Evening Edition, Saluki Sports View, The Gateway Journal, the Saluki Local Reporting Lab and weekend photojournalism workshops.

“All these labs prepare our students for the real professional world of journalism and advertising,” said Jan Thompson, director of the Charlotte Thompson Suhler School of Journalism and Advertising. “These labs are what make the Charlotte Thompson Suhler School of Journalism and Advertising unique from other programs.”

We are deeply grateful for Mr. Franke’s trust in SIU and the legacy he leaves behind, one that will shape student experiences for generations to come.
