William E. Costabile Journalism Scholarship

William E. Costabile is a 1974 alum of the College of Communication Arts and Sciences. While a student at MSU, William worked as a sportswriter for both the State News and the Lansing State Journal. For eight years he worked in radio, using his journalism skills to write and produce radio commercials and sports broadcasts. Although he went on to work as a business analyst, he found that all his editing and photojournalism classes were an immense help. To say the least, a journalism education opens doors to many careers. This scholarship is to be awarded during their junior year to a student who will carry on the highest journalism traditions at MSU.
