27th Virginia Communications Hall of Fame

The Virginia Communications Hall of Fame recognizes communication professionals with exceptional careers in advertising, journalism, public relations and other media fields. George Crutchfield, founding director of the School of Mass Communications from 1978-1989 (now the Robertson School of Media and Culture), launched the organization in 1986.

Investing in the Hall of Fame ensures the continued recognition of exceptional careers of the most notable communications professionals in Virginia. Your participation is also an investment in the future of the communications industry by supporting our students through the Virginia Communications Hall of Fame scholarship. With your support each year, a $1,000 scholarship is awarded to an undergraduate student based on merit, need and writing skills.
