In this episode of our monthly program, Engaging the Community, we hear from Missouri State University President Clif Smart on why the university has carved out a space for local, independent news.

The university has been home to Ozarks Public Broadcasting—which includes KSMU-Ozarks Public Radio—for decades. More recently, it provided the nonprofit digital news outlet, The Daily Citizen, a facility on campus to use for its operations.
