In a bid to support young journalists and their college media programs, The Austin Chronicle is partnering with Camayak to offer its professional-grade tools to local students for free. Camayak, which is also used by journalism schools at TCU, SMU and UT El Paso among others in Texas, will be offered free of charge to any state school media organization in Austin, courtesy of The Chronicle. The partnership, which The Chronicle hopes will help its editors identify promising young writers and photographers, is designed to help student media weather budget threats and grow its influence in the city.
