The PulitzerPrize is a United States award regarded as the highest honor in print journalism.
The prize was established by Joseph Pulitzer, a Hungarian-American journalist and newspaper publisher in the late 19th century.
In addition to the prizes, Pulitzer travelling fellowships are awarded to four outstanding students of the Graduate School of Journalism as selected by the faculty.
Pulitzer was the first to call for the training of journalists at the university level in a school of journalism.
The formal announcement of the prizes, made each April, states that the awards are made by the president of Columbia University on the recommendation of the PulitzerPrize board.
Pulitzer's health was fractured further during this ordeal and in 1890, at the age of 43, he withdrew from the editorship of The World and never returned to its newsroom.
