News and Media

Spelman College is making local, national and global news! Spelman is one of the most highly respected liberal arts colleges in the United States, well-known for academic achievement in three areas of distinction: prestigious top tier national institutions, historically Black colleges and universities, and women's colleges.

The media relations team serves as the primary College contact for journalists. We monitor email both during and after business hours and will respond to urgent queries as quickly as possible.
