Four faculty members and Dean Frank L. Mott traveled to Lincoln University in Jefferson City, Mo., a historically black college, three times a week to provide journalism instruction to two African-American students. After several failed attempts by other African-American students to gain admittance to MU, Louise Massey requested training in journalism, a subject not offered at Lincoln University. Because of "separate but equal" laws, Massey was not admitted to the University of Missouri, resulting in the "traveling school of journalism."
Professors who traveled to Lincoln University to teach journalism included (clockwise from top left): Dean Frank L. Mott, E.K. Johnston, Marnie Bowman, Edith Marken and Eugene Sharp.
