Public water supplies are safer than ever – a lot safer

Great Lakes Echo
Who we are
Great
Lakes Echo is a project of the Knight Center for Environmental Journalism at
Michigan State University. The Knight Center has undergraduate and graduate
programs and holds workshops for professional journalists.
What we do
Echo was created with assistance of MSU’s Department of Telecommunications, Information Studies and
Media. Original content is produced by journalists working for
the center. Additional content is provided by Capital News
Service.
We foster and serve a news community defined by proximity
to and interest in the environment of the Great Lakes watershed. We use
traditional news reporting methods but also push the frontiers of journalism to
harness the knowledge, interests, skills and energy of that community.
